a. Interest on capital @ 10%.

c. Amount of loan advanced by Anik to the firm Rs 1,00,000
d. Rent paid to Manik amounts to Rs 12,590.
e. Profit sharing ratio is 3 : 2.

The profit for the year ended March 31, 2012 before considering above appropriations were Rs 1,51 ,200. Interest on drawings made by the partners amounted to Rs 1,340 for Anik and Rs 1,750 for Manik. Show the distribution of profits between the partners.

Dear Student


In case the rate of Interest on loan is missing in partnership deed, then Interest on loan given by partner to the firm is provided at 6% p.a.

Therefore here Interest on loan given by Anik to he firm is 1,00,000 x 6% = 6,000/-.

It has been assumed that loan was provided in the beginning of the year and hence interest is calculated for the whole year.
