3. Fund Based Accounting


The accounting where receipts and incomes relating to a particular fund are credited to that particular fund
and payments and expenses are debited to that particular fund, it is known as fund based accounting. These
funds are created for specific purposes, e.g. prize fund, sports fund, library fund, building fund, endowment
fund, etc.
If the fund account has a credit balance, it is shown in the balance sheet on the liabilities side. If the fund
account has a debit balance, i.e. the fund is less than the balance, it is transferred to the debit of income and
expenditure account.

4. Classification of Funds
Funds may be classified as
(i) Unrestricted funds (ii) Restricted funds
Various types of restricted funds are as follows:
(a) Endowment fund (b) Annuity fund (c) Loan fund
(d) Fixed assets fund (e) Prize fund

5. Interest on Capital
It is generally allowed to compensate partners for contributing capital to the firm in excess of profit
sharing ratio. It is an appropriation of profits and is provided only if there is profit. It will be provided in
case of loss also only if partnership deed so provides or it is to be treated as a charge against profits.

6. Different Cases Related to Interest on Capital


The various cases related to interest on capital are
Case I When partnership agreement is silent about interest on capital : Not allowed
Case II When partnership agreement provides that interest on capital is to be allowed.
(i) In case, there is a loss — Not provided
(ii) In case, there are sufficient profits — Fully allowed
(iii) If there are insufficient profits — Proportionately allowed to the extent of available
profits in the ratio of capital of each partner
ACCOUNTANCY Revision Booklet Class XII 7

Case III When partnership agreement states that interest on capital is to be provided as a charge : Fully
allowed irrespective of profits or losses.
Note Interest on capital is always calculated on the opening balance of capital in a year.
In case, closing capital is given, then opening capital will be calculated first by using the following formula:
Opening Capital = Closing Capital - Profits + Drawings
- Additional Capital
7. Interest on Drawings
The amount withdrawn by the partners in cash or in kind for their personal use is termed as drawings.
When the partnership deed is silent, no interest on drawings is charged. Interest on drawings is calculated
with reference to the time period for which money was withdrawn.
Case I When fixed amount is withdrawn at fixed
intervals
Interest on Drawings = Total Drawings
Rate of Interest Average Period

Value of time under different circumstances will be as under

Case II When unequal amount is withdrawn at irregular intervals

Rate of Interest Months Remaining
Interest on Drawings = Amount of Drawings ´ ´

(ii) Product Method Interest on Drawings = Total of Products ´ ´

8. Accounting Treatment of Interest on Partner’s Loan to the Firm
Interest on partner’s loan is a charge against the profits and not an appropriation out of profits and hence,
must be transferred to the debit of profit and loss account and not to the debit of profit and loss
appropriation account.
9. Accounting Treatment of Salary or Commission to a Partner
Salary or commission to a partner is to be allowed, if the partnership agreement provides for the same.
Salary or commission to a partner is an appropriation out of profits and not a charge against the profits,
i.e., they are to be allowed only if there are profits and hence, must be transferred to the debit of profit and
loss appropriation account and not to the debit of profit and loss account.
Calculation of Commission based on Profit
(i) Commission as Percentage of Net Profit before Charging such Commission
Rate of Commission
= Net Profit before Commission ´
100
(ii) Commission as Percentage of Net Profit after Charging such Commission
Rate of Commission
= Net Profit before Commission ´
100 + Rate of Commission
10. Rent Paid to a Partner
It is a charge against the profits and not an appropriation out of profits. It is therefore debited to profit and
loss account and credited to partners’ current accounts, in case of fixed capitals or to partners’ capital
account, when capitals are fluctuating.

11. Distribution of Profit among Partners: Profit and Loss Appropriation Account
Profit and loss appropriation account is an extension of the profit and loss account. It is prepared to show
appropriation or distribution of net profit among the partners.

12. Past Adjustments


If after closing the accounts of a partnership firm, some errors or omissions are discovered in the
accounts, e.g. interest on capital or drawings may not have been allowed or charged; charged or allowed at
a higher or lower rate, etc. Then under such circumstances, the accounts once closed are not reopened.
Such errors and omissions are rectified by recording an adjusting entry. Such adjustments are called past
adjustments as they relate to past period.

13. Guarantee of Profits to a Partner


A partner may be admitted into the firm with a guarantee of minimum profits which means that if his
share of profit is less than that of guaranteed profit, then he would be paid the guaranteed share of profit.
The deficiency (difference between guaranteed profit and actual profit) is borne by partner or partners
who have guaranteed the profit in agreed ratio.

14. Goodwill
It is the good name or reputation of a business earned by a businessman through hard work and honesty
which helps it to earn more profits than normal profits.

15. Methods of Valuation of Goodwill


(i) Average Profit Method
(a) Simple average profit method
Value of Goodwill = Average Profit ´ Number of Years’ Purchase
Abnormal and Non - business Items
Profit = Total Actual Profits of Given Number of Years before
Given Number of Years
(b) Weighted average profit method
Value of Goodwill = Weighted Average Profit ´ Number of Years’ Purchase
Total of Products
Weighted Average Profit =
Total of Weights
(ii) Super Profit Method
Value of Goodwill = Super Profit ´ Number of Years’ Purchase
ACCOUNTANCY Revision Booklet Class XII 9

Normal Rate of Return


Normal Profits = Average Capital Employed ´
100
Capital Employed (Net assets) = Total Assets (excluding goodwill) - External Liabilities
Super Profits = Average (Actual) Profits - Normal Profits
(iii) Capitalisation Method
(a) Capitalisation of average profit
Value of Goodwill = Capitalised Value of Average Profits - Actual Capital Employed
100
Capitalised Value of Average Profits = Average profits ´
Normal Rate of Return
Actual Capital Employed = Total Assets (excluding goodwill) - External Liabilities

Super Profits = Average (Actual) Profits - Normal Profits

Reconstitution of a Partnership Firm :


Change in Profit Sharing Ratio
1. Change in the Profit Sharing Ratio
When one or more partners acquire an intrerest in the business from another existing partner(s), it is said
to be a change in the profit sharing ratio in a partnership firm. A change in the profit sharing ratio among
the existing partners means, it is reconstitution of the firm without admission, retirment or death of a
partner.
2. Treatment of Goodwill
At the time of change in profit sharing ratio, the gaining partner must compensate the sacrificing partner
by way of payment to him as goodwill in the gaining ratio.

3. Treatment of Revaluation of Assets and Liabilities


(i) When revised values are to be recorded in the books of accounts An account titled ‘revaluation
account’ or ‘profit and loss adjustment account’ is opened for this purpose (as is discussed in the
previous chapter admission of a partner).
(ii) When revised values are not to be recorded in the books of accounts In this case, a single adjusting entry
involving the capital accounts of gaining partners and sacrificing partners is passed.

Reconstitution of a Partnership Firm:


Admission of a Partner
Admission of a partner is one of the modes of reconstituting the firm under which old partnership comes to an
end and a new one among all partners (including incoming partner) comes into existence.

1. New Profit Sharing Ratio


The ratio in which all the partners (including incoming partner) share the future profits and losses is
known as the new profit sharing ratio.
New Profit Sharing Ratio = Old Share – Sacrificing Share

2. Sacrificing Ratio
The ratio in which old partners agree to sacrifice their share of profit in favour of the new partner is called
the sacrificing ratio.
Sacrificing Ratio = Old Share - New Share
3. Various Cases Related to Treatment of Goodwill
Case I When premium for goodwill is In case a new partner pays premium to the old partners privately or directly or
paid privately by a new partner outside the business, it will not be recorded because it is an out of business
transaction. However entry for capital brought in by new partner will be recorded.

capital of all partners.
Calculation of Hidden Goodwill
