Working Note:
Sacrificing Ratio = 3 : 2 if nothing has been mentioned in partnership deed except new partner’s share (it is assumed)
(A) Calculation of Capital contributions by partners :
Total Capital of firm = (Ramesh capital balance c/d + Rahim’s capital balance c/d) X 6/5
= (3526 + 2684) X 6/5
= Rs. 7452
(i) Ramesh’s required capital = 3/6 X 7452 = Rs. 3726
Ramesh’s actual capital = Rs. 3526
Ramesh’s will introduce Rs. 200 in business
(ii) Rahim’s required capital = Rs. 2/6 X 7452 = Rs. 2484
Rahim’s actual capital = Rs. 2684
Rahim’s will withdraw Rs. 200 from business
(iii) Suresh’s capital = 1/6 X 7452 = Rs. 1242
(B) New PSR :
Let total share = 1
Suresh share = 1/6 Remaining share = 1 – 1/6 = 5/6
Ramesh’s new share = 3/5 X 5/6 = 3/6
Rahim’s new share = 2/5 X 5/6 = 2/6
Suresh’s share = 1/6
New PSR = 3 : 2 : 1 Ans.
