First of all you have to decide in whose hand and in whose Balance Sheet you are going to show the Joint Account. If you have shown in a particular persons name then it will always be in the bane of that person.
As regards interest if it is not possible to fix the percentage of deposits and withdrawals the it is very simple. Divide the interest equally and show in the hands of both the holders and like wise the balance at the year end should also be divided equally and to be shown in the balance sheet of both the joint holders. But you must state in the Balance Sheet that the Balances is that of joint account.
