Working Notes-
WN1 : Sacrificing Ratio = A : B
                                      = `1/10 : 1/10` = 1 : 1
WN 2 : Calculation of new profit sharing Ratio
Old Ratio = A : B 
                = 5 : 3
New Ratio = Old Ratio - Sacrificing Ratio
A's = `5/8 - 1/10 = 21/40`

B's = `3/8 - 1/10 = 11/40`

New Profit Sharing Ratio = A : B : C

                                        = `21/40 : 11/40 : 1/5`

                                        = `[ 21 : 11 : 8 ]/40`
WN 3 = Distribution of C's share of Goodwill ( in Sacrificing Ratio)
A and B each will get = 12,000 x `1/2` = Rs. 6,000
