In the question it is said that the firm has a sum due to ( owe) A's estate ( that means Due to Mr.A right ). If we calculate the total amount due to A will be 120000(20000*3 years *2 half yearly). I understand that 20000 is paid till only 31.12.2001. because on 1/1/2002. The firm is getting dissolved. But my question is Since they deduct 20000 from A's executor capital account . why the 120000 has not been added to Mr. A's executor account? Why are they deducting from the amount that was brought (capital)and earned(profits, goodwill shares ) in the firm by A? Capital amount is different from the amount the firm due to him ( kind of loan from A?). Pls kindly clarify.
