Working Note:
Calculation of New Profit Sharing Ratio:
Remaining Share for Old partners = Total Profit – Share of New Partner
= 1 – 1/4
=4-1/4
=3/4
Now, Distribute the remaining share among old Partners :
New Share of Partner = Remaining Share X Old Share of Partner
New Share of A = 3/4 X 3/5
= 9/20
New Share of B = 3/4 X 2/5
= 6/20
Now make the same denominator of All partners
So, C’s New Ratio = 1/4 X 5/5
= 5/20
New Profit Sharing Ratio = 9:6:5
Now, Calculate the Closing balance of A and B capital according to the new profit-sharing ratio
So, Firstly Calculate:
Total Capital of Firm = Amount invested by the New Partner X Reciprocal of Share of New Partner
= 20,000 X 4/1
= 80,000/-
Now Calculate:
A’s New Capital Balance = Total Capital of Firm X A’s New Share
= 80,000 X 9/20
= 36,000/-
B’s New Capital Balance = Total Capital of Firm X B’s New Share
= 80,000 X 6/20
= 24,000/-
Now according to the question, we have to adjust the capital balance with the current account.
| Partner’s Capital A/c |
|||||||
| Particulars | A | B | C | Particulars | A | B | C |
| To P/L App. (Loss) | 900 | 600 | – | By Bal. B/d | 30,000 | 25,000 | – |
| By Bank a/c | – | – | 20,000 | ||||
| By Goodwill | 6,000 | 4,000 | – | ||||
| By General Res. | 6,000 | 4,000 | – | ||||
| To Current A/c (B.Fig) | 5,1,00 | 8,400 | – | ||||
| To Bal. c/d | 36,000 | 24,000 | 20,000 | ||||
| 42,000 | 33,000 | 20,000 | 42,000 | 33,000 | 20,000 | ||
