Solution

The question is asking to prepare the Partner's Capital Accounts for Y and Z under two scenarios: (i) when capitals are fixed, and (ii) when capitals are fluctuating. The given information includes their initial capitals, the interest rate on their capital, Z's salary and commission, and the net profit for the year.

Step 1: Calculate the interest on capital for each partner. This is done by multiplying their capital by the interest rate. For Y, this would be 2,50,000 * 9/100 = 22,500. For Z, this would be 1,50,000 * 9/100 = 13,500.

Step 2: Subtract the interest on capital and Z's salary from the net profit. This gives us the profit available for distribution. 2,12,000 - 22,500 - 13,500 - 60,000 = 1,16,000.

Step 3: Calculate Z's commission. This is done by multiplying the profit available for distribution by the commission rate. 1,16,000 * 6/100 = 6,960.

Step 4: Subtract Z's commission from the profit available for distribution. This gives us the divisible profits. 1,16,000 - 6,960 = 1,09,040.

Step 5: Since the profit sharing ratio is not given, we assume that the profits are shared equally. Therefore, each partner gets 1,09,040 / 2 = 54,520.

(i) When capitals are fixed: Y's Capital Account balance = initial capital + interest on capital + share of profit = 2,50,000 + 22,500 + 54,520 = 3,27,020 (Cr.) Z's Capital Account balance = initial capital + interest on capital + salary + commission + share of profit = 1,50,000 + 13,500 + 60,000 + 6,960 + 54,520 = 2,84,980 (Cr.)

(ii) When capitals are fluctuating: Y's Capital Account balance = initial capital + interest on capital + share of profit = 2,50,000 + 22,500 + 54,520 = 3,27,020 (Cr.) Z's Capital Account balance = initial capital + interest on capital + salary + commission + share of profit = 1,50,000 + 13,500 + 60,000 + 6,960 + 54,520 = 2,84,980 (Cr.)
