When the principal recorded in a retired or deceased partner’s loan account is paid in installments, what effect will each installment have on the firm’s books?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The firm’s liability will decrease

The amount standing to the credit of the partner’s loan account is a liability of the firm. On paying each principal installment, cash or bank balance decreases and the outstanding loan liability decreases by the same amount. Thus, the firm’s liability decreases; the payment is not treated as an increase in profit or capital. Exam tip: Repayment of a loan generally reduces both cash and liability, not profit.
