*1 Calculation of Actual Amount of Interest on A’s, B’s, & C’s Capital
Interest on Capital = Opening Capital X Rate of Interest
| Interest on Mannu’s Capital | = | 30,000 | X | 5 |
| 100 |
Interest on Mannu’s Capital = 1,500/-
| Interest on Shristhi’s Capital | = | 10,000 | X | 5 |
| 100 |
Interest on Shristhi’s Capital = 500/-
*3 Calculation of Interest on Mannu’s & Shristhi’s Drawing
| Interest on Drawing | = | Drawing X Rate of Interest X Period |
| Period | = | During the year |
| = | 6 Months |
| Interest on Mannu’s Drawing | = | 4,000 | X | 6 | X | 6 |
| 100 | 12 |
Interest on Mannu’s Drawing = 120/-
