Interest on retiring partner loan may ultimately be transferred to which account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Profit and loss account

Interest on a retiring partner’s loan is a financing expense incurred by the firm for using the unpaid amount. It is not a distribution of goodwill, reserve, or the partner’s personal drawings. In the books, the interest is credited to the retiring partner’s loan account because the firm owes that interest, and the corresponding expense is transferred to the Profit and Loss Account.

Thus, when the question asks where the interest may ultimately be transferred, the correct account is the Profit and Loss Account. Goodwill is used for goodwill adjustments, general reserve represents accumulated profits, and drawings record withdrawals by partners. Therefore option A is correct.
