Hello,

This is regarding calculation of Partner's Remuneration when there is provison of Income tax. Currently these entries are posted in the account:

Dr Advance Tax Paid 25000  
Cr Bank   25000
 

Date: 30-6-16

 

   
Dr Advance Tax Paid 25000  
Cr Bank   25000
 

Date: 15-12-16

 

   
Dr Profit & Loss A/c 52000  
Cr Provision for Income tax   52000
 

Date: 31-3-17

 

   
Dr Provision for Income tax 50000  
Cr Advance Tax paid   50000

Profit Before this provision : Rs 200,000

Firstly please let me know if these entries are correct on respective dates. The last entry is also posted on 31-3-17. This way the provision of income will be shown in Balance Sheet as Rs 2000 and the profit will go down by Rs 52000.

However when calculation partner's remuneration - should remuneration be counted as 90% of Rs 200,000? Or should it be counted as 90% Rs 148,000?

Thanks for your help.

Tax is imposed on the Profit of the Firm After deducting all the expenses including the Remuneration to Partners calculated as per Sec 40(b).

Therefore Remuneration will be calculated on the book profit of the Firm ie., Rs 2,00,000.
