| Old Profit Sharing Ratio | = | 1 | : | 3 | : | 1 |
| 2 | 10 | 5 |

| 10 | 10 | 10 |
(a) If X retires
(a) On X’s retirement his 5/10 share will be distributed among Y & Z in their
relative ratio , i.e., 3 : 2
New Profit sharing Ratio of Y & Z = 3 : 2
Gaining ratio = New share – old share

| 5 | 10 | |||
| = | 3 | |||
| 10 |
| Z’s gain | = | 2 | - | 2 |
| 5 | 10 | |||
| = | 2 | |||
| 10 |
Gaining ratio = 3 : 2
(b) If Y retires
On Y’s retirement his 3/10 share will be distributed among X & Z in their relative ratio , i.e., 5 : 2
New Profit sharing Ratio of X & Z = 5 : 2
Gaining ratio = New share – old share

| 7 | 10 | |||
| = | 15 | |||
| 70 |
| Z’s gain | = | 2 | - | 2 |
| 7 | 10 | |||
| = | 6 | |||
| 70 |
| Gaining ratio | = | 15 | : | 6 |
| = | 5 | : | 2 |
(c) If Z retires
On Z’s retirement his 2/10 share will be distributed among X & Y in their relative ratio
Old Profit Sharing Ratio = 5 : 3 : 2
Strike out share of Z from Old Profit sharing ratio = 5 : 3
Gaining ratio = New share – old share
| X’s gain | = | 5 | - | 5 |
