Working Note:-
Karuna is admitted for 1/5th share
Let the total share of the business = 1
| Remaining share | = | 1 | - | 1 |
| 5 |
| = | 5 - 1 |
| 5 |
| = | 4 |
| 5 |
To Calculate to New Ratio distribute the remaining share in the old ratio of old partners’
New Ratio = Combined share of Kalpana and Kanika X Old Ratio
| Kalpana's Share | = | 4 | X | 3 |
| 5 | 5 |
| = | 12 |
| 25 |
| Kanika's Share | = | 4 | X | 2 |
| 5 | 5 |
| = | 8 |
| 25 |
New Profit sharing Ratio = 12 : 8 : 5
Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio
| Kalpana's Share | = | 3 | - | 12 |
| 5 | 15 |
| = | 15 -12 |
| 25 |
| = | 3 |
| 25 |
| Kanika | = | 2 | - | 8 |
| 5 | 25 |
| = | 10- 8 |
| 25 |
| = | 2 |
| 25 |
Sacrificing Ratio = 3 : 2
Calculate of Karuna's Capital
| Adjusted Capital of Kalpana | = | 6,49,200 |
| Adjusted Capital of Kanika | = | 3,22,800 |
| Total Adjusted Capital | = | 9,72,000 (6,49,200+3,22,800) |
Karuna's Capital = Total Adjusted Capital X Karna’s Profit Share X Reciprocal of combined new Share of Old Partner
| Karuna’s Share of Goodwill | = | 9,72,000 | x | 1 | x | 5 |
| 5 | 4 | |||||
