Correct Answer: Loss to the existing partners 


Solution : Answer = Loss to the existing partners 

Recording an unrecorded liability during the reconstitution of a partnership firm will lead to a loss for the existing partners. This is because the liability, which was previously unaccounted for, will now reduce the net assets of the firm, resulting in a decrease in the capital or profit share of the existing partners.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
