Under which heading does a retiring partner's loan account appear in the balance sheet?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Liabilities

Direct answer: option A, liabilities. A retiring partner’s loan represents an amount that the firm still owes to that former partner. An amount owed by the business is a liability, so the credit balance of this loan appears on the liabilities side of the balance sheet. Option A is correct. Option B, fixed assets, are long-term resources owned by the firm, such as buildings or machinery; a partner loan is not a resource. Option C, current assets, are resources expected to provide benefit, while this loan is an obligation. Option D, income, records earnings and is not the classification for an unpaid loan. The supplied answer is correct. Exam cue: ask “Who owes whom?” If the firm must pay the partner, show the amount as a liability.
