Working Notes:

WN 1Calculation 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 2Calculation of Profit Share of each Partner

Profit available for distribution = 4,20,000-` 1,45,000 -` 50,000 =  `2,25,000

Profit sharing ratio = 1 : 1

 Profit share of each X and Y = 2,25,000× 1/2

 

Question 37:


Ram and Mohan, two partners, drew for their personal use `1,20,000 and  ` 80,000. Interest is chargeable @ 6% p.a. on the drawings. What is the amount of interest chargeable from each partner?

Answer:


In this question, date of drawings made by the partners is not given. Therefore, interest on drawings is calculated on average basis for a period of six months.

Interest on Ram’s Drawings = 1,20,000× 6/ 100×6/12=3,600

Interest on Mohan’s Drawings = 80,000× 6/ 100×6/12=2,400

 

Question 38:


Brij and Mohan are partners in a firm. They withdrew ` 48,000 and ` 36,000 respectively during the year evenly in the middle of every month. According to the partnership agreement, interest on drawings is to be charged @ 10% p.a.
Calculate interest on drawings of the partners using the appropriate formula.

Answer:


Since, the drawings are made evenly at the middle of every month, therefore interest on drawings is calculated for a period of six months.

Interest on Brij's Drawings= `. 48,000×10/100×6/12= `. 2,400

Interest on Mohan's Drawings= `. 36,000×10/100×6/12= `. 1,800

 

Question 39;

Answer;


Interest on Dev’s Drawings=10,000×12=1,20,000×12/100×6/12=7,200

Note ; Interest on drawing will be calculated for 6 month as average ,because same amount withdrawn in the middle of every month during the year

 

Question 40:


One of the partners in a partnership firm has withdrawn `9,000 at the end of each quarter, throughout the year. Calculate interest on drawings at the rate of 6% per annum.

Answer:

Amount of Drawings =  ` 9,000 per quarter
Annual Drawings= 
` (9,000 × 4) =  ` 36,000
Rate of Interest on Drawings = 6% p.a.

Average Period

=

(Months remaining after the first drawings + Months remaining after the last drawings)/2  

 

=

(9 + 0)/2 = 4.5 months  

Interest on Drawings

=

(Annual drawings × Rate of Drawings/100 × Average Period/12)  

 

=

(36,000 × 6/100 × 4.5/12) =  ` 810
