Working Note:

Calculation of new PSR :

Calculation of new PSR :
C’s Share = 1/4
Remaining share = 1 – 1/4 – 3/4
A’s new share = 2/3 X 3/4 = 2/4
B’s new share = 1/3 X 3/4 = 1/4
C’s share = 1/4
New PSR = A : B : C = 2 : 1 : 1
Calculation of Capital contribution by old partners :
Total capital of firm = 40000 X 4/1 = Rs. 160000
(Taking C’s capital as base)
(i) A’s required capital = 2/4 X 160000 = Rs. 80000
A’s actual capital = Rs. 90000
So A will withdrawn Rs. 10000 from business.
(ii) B’s required capital = 1/4 X 160000 = Rs. 40000
B’s actual capital = Rs. 30000
So B will introduce Rs. 10000 into business.
(iii) C’s required capital = 1/4 X 160000 = Rs. 40000
