Question : B and C were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 3: 2: 1. They admitted D as a new partner for 1/8 th share in the profits, which he acquired 1/16 th from B and 1/16 th from C. sacrificing ratio will be
Option 1: 1:1:1
Option 2: 2:1
Option 3: 3:2:1
Option 4: 1:1
Correct Answer: 1:1
Solution : Answer = 1:1 A's new Share $=\frac{3}{6}$ b's new Share $=\frac{2}{6}-\frac{1}{16}=\frac{16-3}{48}=\frac{13}{48}$
C's new Share $=\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{16}=\frac{8-3}{48}=\frac{5}{48} \quad$ D's Share $=\frac{1}{8}$ Thus, the New Profit Sharing Ratio for A, B, C and D will be: $\frac{3}{6}: \frac{13}{48}: \frac{5}{48}: \frac{1}{8}$ Sacrificing ratio will be 1: 1 because b and c sacrifice in the ratio of 1: 1. Hence, the correct option is 4.
Question : A, B and C were partners in a firm sharing profits in a 3: 3: 2 ratio. They admitted D as a new partner for 4/7 profit. D acquired his share 2/7 from A, 1 / 7 from B and 1 / 7 from C. The new profit sharing ratio will be
Option 1: 5:13:6:32
