Solution

₹ 7,00,000

Explanation:

Interest on Shiv’s loan is to be considered a charge against profits and thus to be shown in the profit and loss A/c.

Interest on Shiv’s loan = `75,000 xx 9/100`

= ₹ 6,750

Profit to be transferred to Profit and Loss Appropriation A/c = ₹ 7,06,750 − 6,750

= ₹ 7,00,000
