On dissolution, Bank Overdraft is transferred to Realisation Account.- True

Reason. As a sundry liability of the business, bank overdraft is a liability of a firm and hence, it is transferred to realisation Account at the time of dissolution and paid as third party Liability.

A solvent partner having debit balance to his Capital Account does not share the deficiency of insolvent partner Capital Account. False.

Reason. In the partnership, the partner’s liability is unlimited so, a solvent partner having the debit balance to his Capital Account should share the deficiency of insolvent partner capital account.

At the time of the dissolution of partnership, all assets should be transferred to Realisation Account. False.
