  1. A
    A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
  2. B
    A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
  3. C
    A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
  4. D
    A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's trace the mechanics of capital accounting methods:\begin{itemize}\item Under the \textbf{Fluctuating Capital Method}, all adjustments (salaries, interest, drawings) are processed within a single account, meaning \textbf{only one Capital Account exists} per partner (A-IV).\item Under the \textbf{Fixed Capital Method}, the capital balance remains static unless extra capital is injected or a permanent withdrawal occurs (B-III).\item When \textbf{fresh or additional capital} is introduced, it increases the partner's equity stake, which is tracked as a \textbf{credit entry to the partner's capital account} (C-I).\item A \textbf{permanent withdrawal of capital} reduces their long-term equity, requiring a \textbf{debit entry to the partner's capital account} (D-II).\end{itemize}This forms the matching set: A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II.
