| Note : |
| Partners profit sharing ratio is assumed to be equal |
| |
| Concept : |
| Fixed or fluctuating capital method decides where you write the transactions. |
| So under fixed capital method opening capital, any additional capital, drawings against capital |
| are written on capital A/c. All the rest of the trasnactions are written in current account |
| But if fluctuating capital method is followed then all transactions are written in capital A/c |
| |
| Whereas |
| |
| Drawings against capital and drawings against profits decides on which amount the interest on capital is paid |
| So while calculaitng interest on capital drawings against capital is subtracted but drawings against profit is not subtracted |
| |
| Note : Since nothing is written so we assume that they are following fluctuating capital A/c |
| Note : For Sukesh since the nature of drawings is not mentioned so we assume it as drawings against profits |

| Then Interest on Capital will be Rs 10 |
| Then Opening capital before Interest will be Rs 110 |

| Now , if Opening Capital with interest is Rs 110 then Opening capital without interest is Rs 100 |
| If it is Rs 1 then opening capital without interest is Rs 100 / 110 |
| If it is Rs AAAAA then opening capital without interest is (100/110 X AAAAA) |
