Such interest is treated as and expense for the business and the following journal entry is recorded in the books of account:

If the opening capital is Rs. 50,000 as on April 01, 2005 and additional capital of Rs. 10,000 on January 01, 2006. The interest charge on capital is 10% p.a. The amount of interest on capital shown in profit and loss account on March 31, 2005 will be:
Interest on Opening capital = Rs. 50,000 X 10/100
= Rs. 5,000
Interest on Additional capital = Rs. 10,000 X 10/100 X 3/12
= Rs. 250
Therefore, total amount of interest on capital = Rs. 5,000 + Rs. 250
= Rs. 5,250
