Partners Current Account

The next account that is prepared after Partners’ Capital Account under the Fixed Capital Account Method is Partners’ Current Account. This account begins with the opening credit balance on the credit side of the current account (or with the opening debit balance on the debit side of the current account). This account does not record any transactions related to the capital account such as, opening and closing capital account balances, drawings and introduction of fresh capital.

This account majorly records transactions such as partners’ salary, commission to partners, interest on drawings, bonus to partners, profit or loss of the Profit and Loss Appropriation Account, etc. Unlike Partners’ Capital Account (under Fixed Capital Method), the Partners’ Current Account can either show either debit closing balance or credit closing balance. The credit closing balance is shown on Liabilities side, while the debit closing balance is shown on the Assets side of the firm’s balance sheet.
