A loan account has an initial credit of ₹320,000. During the year, a principal payment of ₹75,000 is made and interest of ₹12,000 is credited at year-end. What is the final balance?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹2,57,000

The governing accounting rule is that a principal repayment reduces a loan liability, while interest credited to the lender’s account increases the amount payable. Begin with the opening credit balance of ₹3,20,000. Deduct the principal payment: ₹3,20,000 − ₹75,000 = ₹2,45,000. Then add the year-end interest credited: ₹2,45,000 + ₹12,000 = ₹2,57,000. Thus, option A is correct. Option B is only the balance after the principal payment and omits the interest. Option C adds the interest but ignores the payment. Option D incorrectly adds both the payment and interest to the opening balance, even though the payment reduces the liability. The final credit balance is therefore ₹2,57,000.
