Working Note:-
Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio
Old Ratio of Ram and Shyam = 3 : 2
Arjun admitted for 1/4 share of profit
Remaining share of A and B after C’s Admission = Total Share - Arjun’s Share
| Remaining share | = | 1 | - | 1 |
| 4 |
| = | 4 - 1 |
| 4 |
| = | 3 |
| 4 |
New Ratio = Old Ratio − Combined share of Ram and Shyam
New Ratio = Combined share of A and B x Old Ratio
| Ram’s Sacrificing Ratio | = | 6 | X | 3 |
| 11 | 4 |
| = | 18 |
| 44 |
| Shyam’s Sacrificing Ratio | = | 5 | X | 3 |
| 11 | 4 |
| = | 15 |
| 44 |
| New Profit sharing Ratio between ram, Shyam and Arjun | = | 18 | : | 15 | : | 1 |
| 44 | 44 | 4 |
| = | 18 : 15 : 11 |
| 44 |
Distribution of Premium for Goodwill
| Ram will get | = | 6,600 | X | 6 |
| 11 | ||||
| = | 3,600 |
| Shyam will get | = | 6,600 | X | 5 |
| 11 | ||||
| = | 3,000 |
Valuation of Goodwill
| Ram will get | = | 1,315 | X | 2 |
| 10 | ||||
| = | 717 |
| Shyam will get | = | 1,315 | X | 1 |
| 2 | ||||
| = | 589 |
