Question 01 Chapter 5 of +2-A
1. X,Y and Z are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 5 : 3 : 2. They admit A into partnership and give him 1/5th share of profits. Find the new profit-sharing ratio.
| Old Ratio of X, & Y | = | 5 : 3 : 2 |
| A is admitted for 1/5 share of profit |
Let the total share of the business = 1
Remaining share of X,Y & Z after A’s Admission = Total Share - A’s Share
| Remaining share | = | 1 | - | 1 |
| 4 |
| = | 5 - 1 |
| 5 |
| = | 4 |
| 5 |
To Calculate to New Ratio distribute the remaining share in the old ratio of old partners’
New Ratio = Combined share of X, Y and Z X Old Ratio
| X’s New Ratio | = | 4 | X- | 5 |
| 5 | 10 |
| = | 20 |
| 50 |
| Y’s New Ratio | = | 4 | X | 3 |
| 5 | 10 |
| = | 12 |
| 50 |
| Z’s New Ratio | = | 5 | X | 2 |
| 10 | 10 |
| = | 8 |
| 50 |
| A’s New Ratio | = | 1 | X | 10 |
| 5 | 10 |
| = | 10 |
| 50 |
| New Profit sharing Ratio between X, Y, Z, and A | = | 20 : 12 : 8 : 10 |
| = | 10: 6 : 4 : 5 |
