Correct Option: B

Interest on a partner's drawings is a cost to the partnership and is typically debited to the profit and loss appropriation account.

Simultaneously, it is credited to the partner's current account to reflect the interest expense in the partner's individual account. This ensures that the partner's capital is appropriately adjusted to account for the interest charged on their drawings.
