Correct Answer: Profit and loss suspense account will be debited by Rs 30,000


Solution : Answer = Profit and loss suspense account will be debited by Rs 30,000

In the case of the death of a partner, the share of profit or loss of the deceased partner until the date of death is determined based on the last year's profit. To adjust this amount in the books, the Profit and Loss Suspense Account is debited by the amount representing the share of the deceased partner's profit or loss.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
