Working Notes:
Calculation of Gaining Ratio
Old Ratio X, Y and Z = 5:3:2
New Ratio Y and Z = 3:2
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
| Y’s Share | = | 3 | – | 3 |
| 5 | 10 | |||
| = | 3 | |||
| 10 |

| Z’s Share | = | 2 | – | 2 |
| 5 | 10 | |||
| = | 2 | |||

Adjustment of Goodwill
Total Goodwill of the Firm = 80,000
| X’s Share of Goodwill | = | 80,000 | X | 5 |
| 10 | ||||
| = | Rs 40,000 |
To be borne by Gaining partners in their Gaining Ratio i.e. 3:2
| Y’s Share | = | 40,000 | X | 3 |
| 5 | ||||
| = | Rs 24,000 |
| Z’s Share | = | 40,000 | X | 2 |
| 5 | ||||
| = | Rs 16,000 |
Adjustment of Capital
X’s Capital before adjustment = 1,19,750
Y’s Capital before adjustment = 61,850
Z’s Capital before adjustment = 32,900
| Total Capital of New Firm | = | X’s Capital +Y’s Capital + Z’s Capital + Closing balance of Bank Account | – | Available Bank Balance |
| = | 1,19,750+61,850+32,900+15,000 | – | 32,000 | |
| = | Rs 1,97,500 |
New Profit Sharing Ratio = 3:4
| Y’s Share of Goodwill | = | 1,97,500 | X | 3 |
| 5 | ||||
| = | Rs 1,18,500 |
| Z’s Share of Goodwill | = | 1,97,500 | X | 2 |

| = | Rs 79,000 |
