Calculation of Gaining Ratio
Old Ratio of A, B, and C = 1/3: 1/2: 1/6
Advertisement-X
= 2/6:3/6:1/6 (Make base equal of all)
=2:3:1
New Ratio of N and S = 3:2
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
| A’s Gaining Share | = | 3 | – | 2 |

| = | 8 | |||

Mr. B is sacrificing.
Adjustment of Goodwill
Goodwill of the firm = Rs 24,000
| C’s Share of Goodwill | = | 24,000 | X | 1 |
| 6 | ||||
| = | Rs 4,000 |
| A’s gain | = | 24,000 | X | 8 |
| 30 | ||||
| = | Rs 6,400 |
| B’s Sacrifice | = | 24,000 | X | 3 |
| 30 | ||||
| = | Rs 2,400 |
Calculation of Excess/Deficit Provision for Doubtful Debts
Required Provision = 5%
Closing Debtors = Debtors – Bad Debts
(after writing off Bad Debts)
|
Closing Debtors |
= | Debtors | – | Bad Debts |
| = | 1,35,000 | – | 6,000 | |
| = | 1,29,000 /- |
Advertisement-X
| New Provision on Closing Debtors | = | Closing Debtors | X | Rate of Provision |
| = | 1,29,000 | X | 5% | |
| = | 6,450/- |
| Balance of Old Provision after Bad Debts | = | Old Provision | – | Bad debts |
| = | 15,000 | – | 6,000 | |
| = | 9,000/- |
| Excess/(Deficit) Provision | = | Old Provision | – | Old Provision |
| = | 9,000 | – | 6,450 | |
| = | 2,550/- |
