Correct Answer: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)


Solution : To demonstrate how the business appropriates or distributes the profit made throughout the year, a P&L Appropriation Account is generated. It is a development of the profit and loss account. At the conclusion of each fiscal year, it is prepared following the production of the profit and loss account and after adjusting for Interest on Capitals, Interest on Drawings, Salary/Commission to Partners, and Transfer to Reserve, the Profit and Loss Appropriation Account is prepared to distribute profits/losses among the Partners.

Hence the correct answer is option 1.
