Answer Details
The capital sum which represents the difference between the assets and liabilities of a society or club is known as "accumulated fund".

The accumulated fund represents the retained earnings of the organization that have not been distributed as dividends or used for any other purpose. In other words, it is the portion of the organization's equity that has been accumulated over time and is available for reinvestment in the business or for use in meeting future contingencies.
