If interest rate on loan is clearly given in agreement which rate will be used?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rate given in agreement

A partnership agreement is the primary source for deciding the rate of interest on a retiring partner’s loan. If the agreement clearly states a rate, that contractual rate must be applied to the outstanding loan for the relevant period. The firm should not replace it with a general or assumed rate. This follows the principle that partners’ agreed terms govern their mutual accounting arrangements.

The rates of 6% or 10% are not automatically applicable merely because they are common figures in some questions. No-interest treatment would also contradict an agreement that expressly provides interest. Therefore option A, the rate given in the agreement, is correct. A general statutory or textbook rate is relevant only when the agreement is silent and the applicable rule requires it.
