Calculation of opening capital of partner’s

Mannu’s opening capital = Closing capital + Drawings – Profit

= ₹ 30,000 – 5,000 × `3/5`

= ₹ 27,000

Shrishti’s opening Capital = Closing capital + Drawings – Profit

= ₹ 10,000 – 5,000 × `2/5`

= ₹ 8,000

Calculation of Interest on partner’s capital

Mannu’s Interest on capital = `27,000xx5%` = ₹ 1,350

Shrishti’s Interest on capital = `8,000xx5%` = ₹ 400

Calculation of Interest on partner’s drawings

Mannu’s Interest on drawings = `4,000xx6%xx6/12`

= ₹ 120

Shrishti’s Interest on drawings = `2,000xx6%xx6/12`

= ₹ 60
