Royalty payable by lessee is transferred to

Royalty A/c
Land Lord A/c
Profit & Loss A/c
Short workings A/c

The correct answer is: A. Royalty A/c

Royalty is a payment made by a lessee to the lessor for the use of the lessor’s property. It is usually calculated as a percentage of the lessee’s gross revenue from the property. The royalty is recorded in the lessee’s accounts as an expense.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option B: Land Lord A/c is the account where the lessor records the rent received from the lessee.
  • Option C: Profit & Loss A/c is the account where the lessee records its net income or loss for the period.
  • Option D: Short workings A/c is an account used to record the intermediate calculations made in preparing the financial statements.
