Working Note: –
*1 Calculation of Remuneration to C as a Manager
Salary to C =27,000
Commission to C = 10% of Net Profit after Salary and Commission
Net Profit after Salary and Commission =2,25,000 − 27,000 = Rs 1,98,000
| Commission to C | 1,98,000 | X | 10 |
| 100 + 10 |
| Commission to C | 1,98,000 | X | 10 |
| 110 |
Commission to C =18,000
| C’s remuneration as Manager | = | Salary | + | Commission |
| = | 27,000 | + | 18,000 | |
| = | 45,000 |
Calculation of distribution of Profits among the partners
| Profit for 2019 | = | 2,25,000 | |
| C’s Profit share | = | 1/4th of a firm’s profit |
| C’s Share of Profit | = 2,25,000 | X | 1 |
| 4 |
C’s Share of Profit= 56,250
Remaining Profit for remaining partner2,25,000 − 45,000 = Rs 1,80,000
| A’s Share of Profit | = 1,80,000 | X | 3 |
| 5 |
A’s Share of Profit= 1,08,000
| B’s Share of Profit | =1,80,000 | X | 2 |
| 5 |
B’s Share of Profit= 72,000
Part of C’s Profit Share to be borne by A= 56,250 − 45,000 = Rs 11,250
any excess amount, which C will be entitled to receive as a partner over the amount which would have been due to him if he continued to be the manager, would have to be personally borne by A out of his share of profit.
A’s Share of Profit= 1,08,000 – 11,250 = 96,750
