उत्तर
The treatment of Profit and Loss A/c (Dr.) is incorrect. The debit balance of Profit and Loss A/c
represents the loss to the firm. As a result, at the time of admission of Yogita, it must be divided among the old partners i.e. Geeta, Sunita and Anita in their old profit sharing ratio i.e. 5:3:2. Thus, it should be debited to the capital accounts of Geeta, Sunita and Anita
