Solution
✅ Correct Option: 1
Employees Provident Fund is a liability owed to employees, not an accumulated profit of the firm, so it is never divided among partners. Accumulated reserves, revaluation loss and the share of profit up to the date of retirement through Profit and Loss Suspense A/c all affect the amount due.
