| C’s Capital A/c | Dr | 15,000 | |||
| To B’s Capital A/c | 30,000 | ||||
| (Being share of B’s goodwill adjusted) | |||||
Working Note: –
Old Ratio of A, B and C = 3: 2: 1
B retires from the firm
New Ratio of A and C = 2: 1
Calculation of Gaining Ratio: –
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
| A’s gaining Share | = | 2 | – | 3 |
| 3 | 6 | |||
| = | 4 | – | 3 | |
| 6 | ||||
| = | 1 | |||
| 6 | ||||
| C’s Gaining Share | = | 1 | – | 1 |
| 3 | 6 | |||
| = | 2 | – | 1 | |
| 6 | ||||
| = | 1 | |||
| 6 | ||||
Firm’s Share of Goodwill = 90,000
B’s Share of Goodwill = Firm’s Goodwill X B’s Shares
| B’s Share of Goodwill | = | 90,000 | X | 2 |
| 6 | ||||
| = | 30,000 |
Gaining Ratio of A and C = 1:1
| A’ gain | = | B’s Goodwill | X | Gaining share of A |
| = | 30,000 | X | 1 | |
| 2 | ||||
| = | 15,000 |
| C’ gain | = | Manisha’s Goodwill | X | Gaining share of Sonia |
| = | 30,000 | X | 1 | |
| 2 | ||||
