Working Note:
(A) Calculation of New partners’ capital :
Total Capital of firm = (A’s capital balance c/d + B’s capital balance c/d) X 4/3 (Reciprocal of combined share)
= (40500 + 19500) X 4/3
Total share of firm = 1
C’s share = 1/4
Combined share of A & B = 1 – 1/4 = 3/4 = 60000 X 4/3 = Rs. 80000
C’s share of capital = 80000 X 1/4= Rs. 20000
