Solution
Looking at each transaction and its corresponding journal entry:
(A) Payment of loans due to partners
When the firm pays back a loan taken from partners, the liability (Partner's Loan A/c) decreases and cash goes out.
Entry: Partner's Loan A/c Dr. → To Bank A/c
Matches with (iv)
(B) For settlement of partners' accounts, in case their capital account shows a debit balance
A debit balance in Partner's Capital A/c means the partner owes money to the firm. When settled, the partner pays cash to clear this balance.
Entry: Bank A/c Dr. → To Partner's Capital A/c
Matches with (iii)
(C) For settlement of loan by a firm to a partner
When a partner returns the loan taken from the firm, cash is received and the asset (Loan to Partners A/c) decreases.
Entry: Bank A/c Dr. → To Loan to Partners A/c
Matches with (ii)
(D) For settlement of any unrecorded liability
During dissolution, any unrecorded liability is first recorded in Realisation A/c (as it represents all assets and liabilities taken over), then paid through bank.

Correct matching: A-(iv), B-(iii), C-(ii), D-(i)
