Calculation of interest on partner’s Drawings
If partners withdrawal the same amount of drawing on a regular basis then we can calculate the interest on drawing with help of following formula: –
Interest on Drawing = Total Drawings X Rate of Interest X Period/12 Months
Rate of Interest = 6%
Period = the period/time will be calculated with the help of following formula: –

A: Rs.2,000 p.m. in the middle of each month during the year:

A’s withdrawal at the middle of every month = 2,000 p.m. Therefore, total drawings of the year= Rs.24,000.
It means 1st withdrawal has made on 15-04-20.
So, Time left from 15-4-20.. to 1-3-20.. is 11 months and 15 days. = 11.5 months
And last withdrawal has made on 15-3-20.
So, Time left from 15-3-20.. to 31-3-20. is 15 days = 0.5 month

Now, put this time period in the formula

Total Drawings = 2,000*12=24,000

B: Rs.3,000 p.m. on the first day of every month for only 6 months.

B’s withdrawal at the beginning of every month = 3,000 p.m. Therefore, total drawings of the year= Rs.18,000.
It means 1st withdrawal has made on 01-04-20.
So, Time left from 1-4-20… to 1-3-20… is 6 Months
And last withdrawal has made on 1-3-20.
So, Time left from 1-3-20… to 31-3-20… is 1 month.

Now, put this time period in the formula:

Total Drawings = 3,000*6 = 18,000

C: Rs.4,000 p.m. on the last day of every month for only 6 months.

A’s withdrawal at the end of every month = 4,000 p.m. Therefore, total drawings of the year= Rs.4,000*6 = Rs.24,000
It means 1st withdrawal has made on 31-04-2.
So, Time left from 31-4-20… to 31-9-20… is 5 Months
And last withdrawal has made on 1-9-20.
So, Time left from 31-9-20… to 31-9-20… is 0 month.
