Calculation of gaining ratio of vishad and roma:

`"Old Ratio" = "Virad"  :  "Vishad"  :   "Roma"`

                          `5       :        3         :        2`

`"New Ratio"                        3         :        2`

`"Gaining Ratio" = "New Ratio" - "Old Ratio"`

`"Vishad's Gain" = 3/5 - 3/10 = 3/10`

`"Roma's Gain" = 2/5 - 2/10 = 2/10`

`"Gaining Ratio" = 3 : 2`

WN1 : Calculation of virad's share of goodwill:

`"Goodwill of the firm" = "Average profit" xx "Number of year's Purchase"`

`"Goodwill of the firm" = 1,50,000 xx 2(1/2) = "Rs"  3,75,000`

`"Share of goodwill of virad" = 3,75,000 xx 5/10 = "Rs"  1,87,500`

`"Vishad will give" = 1,87,500 xx 3/5 = "Rs" 1,12,500`

`"Roma will give" = 1,87,500 xx 2/5 = "Rs" 75,000`

WN2: Calculation of profit share of virad:

`"Profit for the year" = "Rs"  1.50,000`

`"Virad's share of profit" = 1,50,000 xx 6/12 xx 5/10 = "Rs" 37,500`

WN3 : Calculation of interest on Virad's Capital

`"Virad's Capital" = 3,00,000`

`"Interest on capital" = 3,00,000 xx 6/12 xx 10/100 = "Rs" 15,000`

WN4 "Virad's share of reserve fund: 

`"Share of reserve fund" = 60,000 xx 5/10 = "Rs" 30,000`
