The account where the profit are distributed to the partner in their profit sharing ratio in partnership
Answer Details
The profit in a partnership is usually distributed to the partners in their profit sharing ratio through an appropriation account. This account is used to track the allocation of profits and losses among the partners and ensure that each partner receives their fair share of the profits. The appropriation account is a temporary account that is closed at the end of the accounting period and the amounts are transferred to the partners' capital accounts. The partners' capital accounts show the partners' individual ownership interests in the partnership and their share of the profits and losses.
