Working Notes

WN1 Calculation of Sacrifice Ratio

Old Ratio 5:3:2
New Ratio: 1:1:1
Sacrificing Ratio = Old Ratio – New Ratio

Anant's sacrificing ratio = `5/10 - 1/3 = 5/10`

Gulab's sacrificing ratio = `3/10 - 1/3 = (-1/30)` ⇒ Gaining

Khushbu's sacrificing ratio = `2/10 - 1/3 = (-4/30)` ⇒ Gaining

The share of Anant in firm's goodwill = `5/30 xx 240000 = 40000`

WN2 Adjustment of Goodwill
Gulab and Khushbu, being the gaining partner will pay Anant, a sacrificing partner in the ratio of
their gain i.e. 1:4

Gulab will pay = = `40000 xx 1/5 = 8000`

Khushbu will pay = `40000 xx 4/5 = 32000`
