Question 38:

One of the partners in a partnership firm has withdrawn  ` 9,000 at the end of each quarter, throughout the year.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 left after the first drawings + Months left 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

Question 39:

A and B are partners sharing profits equally. A drew regularly `4,000 in the beginning of every month for six months ended 30th September, 2020. Calculate interest on drawings @ 5% p.a. for a period of six months.

Answer:

Amount of drawing= 4000

No. of drawings= 6

Total amount of drawing=24,000

Average month = time lift after first drawing by 30th September, 2020 + time lift after last drawing by 30th September, 2020 ÷2

                            = 6+1÷2=3.5

Interest on drawing= total drawing×Rate of drawing/100×Average month / 12

                                 =34,000×5/100×3.5/12=250
