Working Note:
*1: -Calculation of Interest on Jay's Capital, and Vijay's Capital
Interest on Capital = Capital X Rate of Interest X Period
Rate of Interest = 9%
Period = Whole year(So we don’t need to add period in the formula)
Jay's Capital = 80,000
Vijay's Capital = 50,000
= 80,000 X 9/100
Total Interest on Jay's Capital = 7,200/-
= 50,000 X 9/100
Total Interest on Vijay's Capital = 4,500/-
But the firm has an only a profit of Rs 7,800. So that’s why we have to calculate the propionate interest on capital up to the extend of profit.
| Propionate Interest on any single partner’s Capital | =Amount of Profit X | Interest on Capital single partner |
| Total interest due to all partners |
| Propionate Interest on any single partner’s Capital | =7,800 X | 7,200 |
| 11,700 |
| Propionate Interest on Jay's Capital | =7,800/- |
| Propionate Interest on Vijay's Capital | =7,800 X | 4,500 |
| 11,700 |
| Propionate Interest on Vijay's Capital | =3,000/- |
