Correct Answer: Should be shown on the liabilities side of new firm Balance Sheet


Solution : Answer = Should be shown on the  liabilities side of the new firm Balance Sheet

At the time of admission of a partner, the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) is a liability of the firm and should be shown on the liabilities side of the new firm's balance sheet. It is not distributed to partners but is retained as a liability of the firm to fulfill its obligations towards employees.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
