Correct Answer: old profit-sharing ratio


Solution : Answer = old profit-sharing ratio

If at the time of change in profit sharing ratio, reserve, accumulated profit and losses exist in the books of the firm, they are transferred to the partner's capital account on their old profit sharing ratio because reserve and accumulated profit and losses as on the date of change in profit sharing ratio were earned before the reconstitution of the firm.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
