|
Period |
Amount of A’s Capital (A) |
Period Left after (B) |
Product (C=A*B) |
|---|---|---|---|
| April 01, 2018, to June 30, 2018 | 50,000 | 3 | 1,50,000 |
| July 01, 2018, to March 31, 2019 | 60,000 | 9 | 5,40,000 |
| Sum of Product | 6,90,000 |
Interest on Capital = Sum of Product X Rate of Interest X 1/12
| Interest on A’s Capital | = | 6,90,000 | X | 10 | X | 1 |
| 100 | 12 |
Interest on A’s Capital = 5,750/-

Product (C=A*B) |
|---|---|---|---|
| April 01, 2018, to June 30, 2018 | 40,000 | 3 | 1,20,000 |
| July 01, 2018, to March 31, 2019 | 41,000 | 9 | 3,69,000 |

Case 2
Calculation of interest on partner's Drawings
Withdrawal at the end of each quarter = 7,500 p.m
It means 1st withdrawal has made on 30/06/2019
So, Time left from 30/06/2019 to 31/03/2020
are 9 Months
And last withdrawal has made on 31/03/2020
So, Time left from 31/03/2020 to 31/03/2020
are 0 Months
Now, put this time period in the formula
| Period | = | 9 + 0 | ||
| 2 | ||||
| Period | = | 9 | ||
| 2 | ||||
| Period | = | 4.5 |
| total Drawing | = | 7,500 | X | 4 |
=30,000
| Interest on Ashok’s Drawing | = | 30,000 | X | 10 | X | 4.5 |
| 100 | 12 |
Interest on A’s Drawing = 1,125/-
Case 3
Calculation of interest on partner's Drawings
Withdrawal at the end of each quarter = 7,500 p.m

So, Time left from 15/05/2019 to 31/03/2020
are 10.5 Months
And last withdrawal has made on 15/02/2020
So, Time left from 15/02/2020 to 31/03/2020
are 1.5 Months
Now, put this time period in the formula
| Period | = | 10.5+ 1.5 | ||
| 2 | ||||
| Period | = | 12 | ||
| 2 | ||||
| Period | = | 6 |
| Total Drawing | = | 7,500 | X | 4 |
=30,000
| Interest on Ashok’s Drawing | = | 30,000 | X | 10 | X | 6 |
