On the death of a partner, how is the firm's reserve fund treated in relation to the deceased partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Accumulated profit

A reserve fund represents profits earned in earlier years and retained in the business; therefore, it is treated as accumulated profit. On a partner’s death, it is transferred to the partners’ capital or current accounts in the old profit-sharing ratio, with the deceased partner’s share credited to his or her account. It is not an outside liability or a loan. Exam tip: Distribute reserves and other accumulated profits in the old ratio unless the question specifies a different treatment.
