Solution

First, we need to calculate the interest on drawings for Piya and Bina.

For Piya: She withdrew 3,000 every month. So, the average period of her drawings will be 6.5 months (since it's uniformly distributed over the year). Interest on Drawings = Drawings * Rate * Time = 3,000 * 12 * 6% * 6.5 / 12 = 1,170

For Bina: She withdrew 4,000 every month. So, the average period of her drawings will also be 6.5 months. Interest on Drawings = Drawings * Rate * Time = 4,000 * 12 * 6% * 6.5 / 12 = 1,560

The total interest on drawings is 1,170 (Piya) + 1,560 (Bina) = 2,730

The adjustment entry to rectify the error would be:

Interest on Drawings Account Dr. 2,730 To Piya's Capital Account 1,170 To Bina's Capital Account 1,560

This entry debits the Interest on Drawings account and credits the capital accounts of Piya and Bina, thereby charging them for the interest on their drawings.
