The statement says retiring partner loan account is a liability and is debited on payment. How is this statement?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Correct

The statement is correct because a retiring partner’s loan represents an amount that the firm owes and must pay in the future. It is therefore a liability, normally shown on the liabilities side of the balance sheet. Under the rules of double entry, payment of a liability decreases that liability. A decrease in a liability is recorded by debiting the liability account, while the bank or cash account is credited because money leaves the firm. Thus, option A is correct. Option B ignores the effect of payment on a liability. Options C and D are unrelated restrictions: the rule does not apply only to goodwill or sales. The loan account is debited when payment is made, and its balance is reduced by the amount paid.
