A and B are partners sharing profits equally. A drew regularly Rs. 4,000 in the beginning of every month for six months ended 30th September, 2018. Calculate interest on drawings @ 5% p.a. for a period of six month

Calculation of interest on drawings:Number of drawings = 6Amount of each drawing= 4000Total drawings= 6*4000 = 24000Number of months= [Time left after 1st drawing + Time left after last drawing]/2 = [6+1]/2 = 3.5 monthsHence,Interest on drawings= 24000 * 5/100 * 3.5/12 = 350

Calculation of interest on drawings:
Number of drawings = 6
Amount of each drawing= 4000
Total drawings= 64000
= 24000
Number of months= [Time left after 1st drawing + Time left after last drawing]/2
= [6+1]/2
= 3.5 months
Hence,
Interest on drawings= 24000 5/100 * 3.5/12
= 350
