| Balance Sheet |
|||||
| Liabilities |
Amount | Assets | Amount | ||
| Creditors | 11,800 | Cash | (1,500 +20,880) | 22,380 | |
| Stock | 28,000 | ||||
| Capital: | Debtors | 19,500 | |||
| A’s | 54,978 | Furniture | 2,500 | ||
| B’s | 39,102 | Machinery | 48,500 | ||
| C’s | 15,000 | 1,09,080 | |||
| 1,20,880 | 1,20,880 | ||||
Working Note:-
| Old Ratio of A and B | = | 3 : 2 |
| C is admitted for 1/8th share of profit |
Let the total share of the business = 1
Remaining share of A and B after C’s Admission = Total Share – C’s Share
| Remaining share | = | 1 | – | 1 |
| 8 |
| = | 8 – 1 | |
| 8 |
| = | 7 | ||
| 8 |
To Calculate to New Ratio distribute the remaining share in the old ratio of old partners’
New Ratio = Combined share of A and B X Old Ratio
| A’s New Ratio | = | 7 | X | 3 |
| 8 | 5 |
| = | 21 | ||
| 40 |
| B’s New Ratio | = | 7 | X | 2 |
| 8 | 5 |
| = | 14 | ||
| 40 |
| C’s New Ratio | = | 1 | X | 5 |
| 8 | 5 |
| = | 5 | ||
| 40 |
New Profit sharing Ratio between A ,B and C = 21 : 14 : 5
| Average Profit | = | Total Profit for past given years |
| Number of years |
| = | 21,000 + 24,000 + 25,560 | |
| 3 |
| = | 70,560 | |
| 3 | ||
| = | 23,520 |
| Number of years’ purchase | = | 2 |
| Goodwill | = | Average Profit X Number of years’ purchase |
| Goodwill | = | 23,520 X 2 |
| Goodwill | = | 47,040 |
| C’s Share of Goodwill | = | Firm’s Goodwill X Share of HinaS |
| = | 47,040 | X | 1 | |
| 8 | ||||
| = | 5,880 |
Sacrificing Ratio of A and B = 3 : 2
| A will get Share of Goodwill | = | C’s Goodwill X Sacrifice share of A |
| = | 5,880 | X | 3 | |
| 5 | ||||
| = | 3,528 |
| B will get Share of Goodwill | = | C’s Goodwill X Sacrifice share of B |
| = | 5,880 | X | 2 | |
| 5 | ||||
| = | 2,352 |
