Answer:
(D) Capital receipt
Explanation:
The life membership fee is a one-time lump sum amount paid by a new member. It gives a member access to the club facilities for the rest of their lives. Life membership is treated as a capital receipt and added to the capital fund. It appears on the liabilities side in the balance sheet.
Life membership is not treated as income for a particular year because the one-time payments permit a member lifetime access to the club services.
