Working Notes
WN 1 Calculation of Gaining Ratio
Old Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 5:3:2
New Ratio (Y and Z) = 3:2
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
`"Y's share" = 3/5 - 3/10 = 3/10`
`"Z's share" = 2/5 - 2/10 = 2/10`
Hence, gaining ratio is 3 : 2.
WN2 Adjustment of Goodwill
Total Goodwill of the Firm = 80,000
`"X's share in goodwill" = 5/10 xx 80,000`
= `40,000`
To be borne by Gaining partners in their Gaining Ratio i.e. 3:2
`"Y's share" = 40,000 xx 3/5 = 24,000`
`"Z's share" = 40,000 xx 2/5 = 16,000`
WN3 Adjustment of Capital
X’s Capital before adjustment = 1,19,750
Y’s Capital before adjustment = 61,850
Z’s Capital before adjustment = 32,900
`"New profit sharing Ratio" = 3 : 2`
`"Y's share in new capital" = 3/5 xx 1,97,500 = 1,18,500`
`"Z's share in new capital" = 2/5 xx 1,97,500 = 79,000`
