(A) is correct, but (R) is wrong. Explanation: Under the fixed capital method, a partner’s capital account remains unchanged except when additional capital is introduced or capital is withdrawn permanently. So, Assertion (A) is correct because the balance may change due to these two reasons. However, Reason (R) is wrong because it incorrectly states that the capital balance always remains the same, ignoring these valid changes.
