On which side is installment payment recorded in retiring partner loan account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit side

A retiring partner’s loan account records the firm’s liability to that partner. When the firm pays an installment, the liability becomes smaller. In a liability account, a decrease is recorded on the debit side. The payment is also credited in the bank or cash account, but the question asks specifically about the retiring partner’s loan account.

Therefore, the installment is written on the debit side of that loan account, making option A correct. A credit entry would normally increase the amount owed, such as when the loan is first transferred to the account or when interest is added. “Both sides equally” is not a rule for recording one payment, and the payment cannot be omitted because it changes the outstanding balance. The side must be identified with reference to the loan account itself.
