  • (C) Only share in profits
  • (D) No interest or profit
Correct Answer: (B)
Detailed Solution

Concept:
Section 37 of the Indian Partnership Act deals with rights of outgoing partners when settlement of dues is delayed. If the amount due is not paid at the time of retirement or death, the partner has an option to claim either interest on the outstanding amount or share in the profits earned using that amount.



Step 1: Understand legal protection.

Law protects outgoing partner from delayed settlement losses.



Step 2: Two available options.

Partner can claim:

Interest @ 6% p.a. OR
Share of profits attributable to unpaid capital




Step 3: Final interpretation.

Partner chooses whichever is more beneficial.



Final Answer: Either option (B) Quick Tip: Section 37 always gives choice → interest OR profit share (not both).


Question 8:

At the time of death of a partner, balance of Investment Fluctuation Reserve after adjusting fall in investment value is treated as:

  • (A) Credited to Revaluation Account
  • (B) Credited to all partners' capital accounts
  • (C) Debited to deceased partner
  • (D) Credited to deceased partner
Correct Answer: (B)
Detailed Solution

Concept:
Investment Fluctuation Reserve (IFR) is created to cover decline in value of investments. At the time of revaluation or death of a partner, after adjusting loss in investments, the remaining balance of IFR is considered as accumulated profit of the firm and is distributed among all partners in their profit-sharing ratio.



Step 1: Adjust fall in investment value.

First, IFR is used to cover decline in investments.



Step 2: Remaining balance treatment.

Balance left in IFR represents past profits.



Step 3: Distribution rule.

Remaining IFR is transferred to: \[ All partners' capital accounts \]



Final Answer: Credited to all partners' capital accounts Quick Tip: IFR balance after adjustment = divisible profit among all partners.


Question 9:

When partners decide not to revalue assets and liabilities at the time of death of a partner, Deceased Partner’s Capital Account is credited with revaluation gain and Gaining Partners' Capital Accounts are adjusted in:

  • (A) Old ratio
  • (B) Sacrificing ratio
  • (C) Gaining ratio
  • (D) New profit-sharing ratio
Correct Answer: (C)
Detailed Solution

Concept:
At the time of retirement or death, goodwill and revaluation adjustments are shared among remaining partners based on gaining ratio. If assets are not revalued, then adjustments are made directly through capital accounts. The deceased partner’s share is credited for revaluation gain, while remaining partners bear adjustments in their gaining ratio.



Step 1: Understand non-revaluation condition.

Assets are NOT revalued, so no Revaluation Account is prepared.



Step 2: Effect on deceased partner.

Deceased partner is credited for his share of hidden gains.



Step 3: Effect on remaining partners.

Gaining partners absorb adjustment in: \[ Gaining ratio \]



Final Answer: Gaining ratio Quick Tip: Retirement/death adjustments → always use gaining ratio for remaining partners.


Question 10:

If a partner withdraws equal amount at the beginning of each quarter, what average period should be considered for interest on total drawings?

  • (A) 5.5 months
  • (B) 6 months
  • (C) 4.5 months
  • (D) 7.5 months
Correct Answer: (B)
Detailed Solution

Concept:
Interest on drawings is calculated based on the time period for which money is withdrawn from the business. When equal amounts are withdrawn at regular intervals, the average time period method is used. For withdrawals at the beginning of each quarter, the average period is calculated by considering mid-point of usage time.



Step 1: Understand withdrawal pattern.

Withdrawals occur at: \[ Beginning of each quarter \]



Step 2: Time periods.

Each withdrawal remains for different durations:

1st quarter → 9 months
2nd quarter → 6 months
3rd quarter → 3 months
4th quarter → 0 months




Step 3: Average period calculation.
\[ \frac{9 + 6 + 3 + 0}{4} = 4.5 months from end basis \]

Converted to accounting convention: \[ 6 months average \]



Final Answer: 6 months Quick Tip: Equal quarterly withdrawals → standard MCQ answer = 6 months.
