Correct Answer: Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false


Solution : Yes, the partner gets compensated by the interest on capital if the profit sharing ratio is lower than the capital contribution made by the partner. So the assertion is correct. If no other information is provided, interest on capital is regarded as appropriations. So, the assertion is false.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
