(vi) When Partnership Deed provides for interest on capital @

₹ 6,000.
Answer:
Case
- (i) When Partnership Deed
is silent as to the interest on capital and profit for the year is ₹
50,000.
Solution: Interest on capital will not be allowed. Profits: Sumit =30,000; Namit =20,000.
Reason: Since no agreement as to interest on Capital. Interest
on capital will not be allowed.
Case
- (ii) When Partnership Deed provides for interest on
capital @ 10% p.a. and profit for the year is ₹ 15,000.
Solution: Interest on Capital: Sumit
₹ 10,000, Namit = ₹ 5,000. Profit is not
left for distribution.
Reason:
interest is allowed as per agreement
profit is enough to be distributed, but Profit is not left for distribution
because interest and profit equal.
Case
- (iii) When the Partnership Deed provides for
interest on capital @ 12% and profit for the year is ₹ 23,000.
Solution: Interest on
Capital: Sumit = ₹ 12,000; Namit = ₹ 6,000 as per rate of interest on capital
@12%.
Profit: Sumit = ₹ 3,000; Namit -
₹ 2,000; Distributable profit= 23,000-18,000=5,000.
Case
- (iv) When the Partnership Deed provides for interest
on capital @ 5% p.a. and loss for the year is ₹ 8,000.
Solution:
interest on capital is not
distributed in case of loss.
Loss
is distributed as per profit sharing ratio
Loss:
Sumit = ₹ 4,800; Namit
= ₹ 3,200
Case
- (V) When Partnership Deed provides for interest on
capital @ 5% p.a. and profit for the year is ₹ 3,000.
Solution:
Since profit of ₹ 3,000 will be distributed in the ratio of 2:1 in the
ratio of capital or interest on capital.
Interest on Capital: Sumit – ₹ 2,000 Namit =
₹ 1,000 as per ratio of interest on capital.
No profit is left for
distribution among the partner since entire amount of Profit is distributed as
interest.
Case
- (vi) When Partnership Deed provides for interest on
capital @ 5% p.a. even if it involves the firm in loss and the profit for the
year is ₹ 6,000.
Solution: Interest on capital: Sumit
= ₹ 5,000; Namit =₹ 2,500,
Loss: Sumit = ₹ 900; Namit = ₹ 600 (loss after interest= 6,000-7,500=1,500).

WN 1Calculation of Partners’
Commission
Partners’
Commission = 20% on Net Profit after
charging such commission
Partners'
Commission = (Net profit×Rate of commission)/(100+Rate of commission)
Partners'

commission is to be shared by the partners in the ratio of 2
: 3 : 2 : 3
A' s
Commission =(30,000×2)/10=6,000
B' s
Commission =(30,000×3)/10=9,000
C' s

WN 1- Calculation of Commission
Commission to X = 10% of Net Profit
after partners’ salaries but before charging such commission
Profit after
Partners’ Salaries = 4,20,000 - ` 1,45,000 = ` 2,75,000
Commission to X |
= Profit after Partners’ Salaries × Rate of commission /
100 |
|
= 2,75,000 × 10
/100= 27,500 |
Commission to Y = 10% of Net Profit
after charging Commission and Partners’ Salaries
Profit after
commission and partners’ salaries = 4,20,000-` 1,45,000-` 27,500 = ` 2,47,500
Commission to Y |
= Profit after commission and partners’ salaries × Rate of
commission / 100+Rate |
|
= 2,45,500 × 10
/100+10= 22,500 |
WN 2- Calculation of Profit Share of each Partner
