Question :
A, B and C are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 4/9:3/9:2/9. B retires and his capital after making adjustments for reserves and gain (profit) on revaluation stands at Rs. 1,39,200 and C agreed to pay him Rs. 1,50,000 in full settlement of his claim. If the new profit-sharing ratio is decided at 5:3, A’s share will be:
Option 1: Credited by Rs 1,950
Option 2: Debited by Rs 1,950
Option 3: Debited by Rs 3,600
Option 4: Debited by Rs 1,600
Correct Answer: Debited by Rs 1,950
Solution : Answer = Debited by Rs 1950
Goodwill = 4,50,000 - 1,39,200 = 10800
B's share = 10800 x 3/9 = 3600
A's Capital A/c Dr 1950
C's Capital A/c Dr 1650
To B's Capital A/c - 3600
(G. Ratio - 13:11)
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio - Old Ratio
A= 5/8 - 4/9 = 45 -32 /72 = 13/72
C = 3/8 - 2/9 = 27 - 16/72 = 11/72 Hence, the correct option is 2.
