Working Note:

1) Interest on Golu’s Loan:

⇒ `10,000 xx 6/100 xx 8/12 = 400`

2) Calculation of Interest on Capital:

⇒ `"Total Capital"  xx "Rate" xx "Average Period"/12`

Moli ⇒ `40,000 xx 10/100 xx 12/12` = 4,000

Golu ⇒ `20,000 xx 10/100 xx 12/12` = 2,000

3) Calculation of Interest on Drawings:

⇒ `"Total Drawings"  xx "Rate" xx "Average Period"/12`

Moli ⇒ `12,000 xx (12)/(100) xx (6 1/2)/(12)` = Rs. 780

Golu ⇒ `12,000 xx (12)/(100) xx (5 1/2)/(12)` = Rs. 660

Note:  

  1. If drawings is done at the beginning of every month, then interest on drawings is calculated of `6 1/2` months.
  2. If drawings is done at the ending of every month, then interest on drawings is calculated of `5 1/2` months.
  3. If rate of interest on loan is not given, then it will be charged always 6%.
  4. Interest on Partner’s Loan being a charge on profits, it to be shown as a deduction from Net Profit in Profit and Loss Appropriation Account or shown on the debit side of Profit and Loss Account.
