4. None of these  

Answer: D. None of these.  The correct answer is Drawings Account is Debited and Cash Account is Credited. 

Explanation: 

Drawings mean the amount withdrawn by the Proprietor from the Business. Hence Proprietor’s account is a personal account.  However, we operate Drawings Account in case of withdrawal of money and operate Capital Account in case of inducting the money into the Business.  

The drawing account comes under Personal Account.  The Rule of the Personal Account is Debit the Receiver and Credit the Giver.   

Hence Drawings Account is Debited. 

Cash is a Real Account.  The Rule of a Real Account is Debit what comes in and Credit what goes out. 

Hence the Cash Account is credited.
