A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/13/M/J/23

Explanation
Default provisions of Partnership Act 1890
Steps:
- Refer to Section 24 of the Partnership Act 1890 for rules applying in absence of partnership agreement.
- Review subsections on profit sharing, interest, salaries, and implied rights to drawings.
- Match each option to explicit or implied statutory defaults.
- Note ambiguity as multiple options align with defaults, requiring clarification.
Not enough information to select one correct option, as B, C, and D accurately reflect default provisions (no interest on capital per s.24(4), equal sharing per s.24(1), no salaries per s.24(8)), while A is debatable since drawings are implicitly permitted post-profit ascertainment but not regulated.
Final answer: Ambiguous; B, C, D correct by default
