If interest is first added to the loan account and then payment is made, payment will be made on which balance?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: On the new balance including interest

The governing accounting principle is that an amount credited to the partner’s loan account becomes part of the firm’s obligation. Suppose the opening loan is ₹100,000 and accrued interest is ₹8,000. After the interest entry, the payable balance becomes ₹108,000. If payment follows immediately and no partial-payment condition is specified, the payment is made against this updated balance, not merely against ₹100,000. Therefore option A is correct. Option B ignores the valid interest entry. Options C and D refer to unrelated balances and cannot determine the amount payable to the retiring partner. The sequence of entries matters because interest is included before settlement.
