Answer:

Here's how we deal with interest on drawings.

Explanation:

  • Interest on drawings is considered as an income to the firm due to the business entity concept which states that the proprietor and the business are separate legal entities.
  • There is no cash entering the business as the business already owes the proprietor some amount of money which in accounting terms is the 'CAPITAL'
  • As the proprietor owes the business interest the amount owed by the business to the proprietor decreases.
  • Capital which is a liability decreases - so it should be debited
  • Interest on drawings which is an income increases - so it should be credited
  • The journal entry that needs to be passed is

             Capital A/c     Dr        1,500

                    To interest on drawings A/c   1,500

  • In accounting equation- it is a addition as well as a deduction from capital as an income is an addition to capital
  • The net effect of this transaction is NIL
  • If given as an adjustment in final accounts, it should be credited to the P&L A/c as it is an indirect income and be deducted from capital in the balance sheet.
