Dissolution of partnership.help please

A/c entries 685 views 2 replies

In dissolution of partnership,there is one adjustment which I have a doubt about:

Premises were taken over by one partner EXE at book value plus 25%.The stamp duty amounting to 10% of takeover price was borne by EXE.The value of Premises as given in the question is Rs.65000

Now my question is,what amount will I put on the credit side of realisation A/c i.e Should I add stamp duty in the takeover price or should I deduct it from the takeover price or should I even consider stamp duty?Thanks in advance for helping me

As far of My opinion 

You have to credit the revaluation account with Rs. 81,250/- i.e. the value of asset to be taken. Stamp duty will debited in the personal books of the partner only.

 

Correct me if i am wrong

 

credit realisation a/c with 81250. No entry for stamp duty.
