Calculation of Opening Capital
| Particulars | Raghav (₹) | Diya (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| Closing Capital | 4,00,000 | 3,00,000 |
| Add: Drawings | 24,000 | 12,000 |
| Less: Profit (1 : 1 of 1,00,000) | (50,000) | (50,000) |
| Opening Capital | 3,74,000 | 2,62,000 |
Interest on capital @ 10%: Raghav = ₹37,400; Diya = ₹26,200 (total ₹63,600). This was wrongly distributed equally (₹31,800 each), so the net adjustment is Raghav +₹5,600 (Cr.) and Diya –₹5,600 (Dr.).
