Correct Answer
When a previously unrecorded liability is paid at the time of admission of a new partner, you need to make a journal entry to account for this payment. The entry typically involves crediting the cash or bank account and debiting the revaluation account. Here's how you can record the journal entry:
Debit (Increase) the Revaluation : This is to recognize the liability that was previously unrecorded. Debiting it increases the liability on the books.
Credit (Decrease) the Cash or Bank Account: This reflects the cash or bank payment made to settle the liability. Crediting it reduces the cash or bank balance.
