Notes

Gaining Ration = New Ratio − Old Ratio 

`A=3/6-3/10`

=`15-9/30` 

=`6/30` 

`B=2/6-3/10` 

=`(10-9)/30` 

=`1/30` 

`C=1/6-2/10` 

=`(5-6)/30` 

=`-1/30` (Sacrificing) 

New Goodwill = 6,00,000

D’s Share in New Goodwill =`6,00,000xx2/10` 

= Rs 1,20,000   

C’s Share of Sacrificing Goodwill =`6,00,000xx1/30` 

= Rs 20,000

A’s gain in new Goodwill =`6,00,000xx6/30=12,00,000` 

B’s gain in new Goodwill =`6,00,000xx1/30=20,000` 

Distribution of profit earned after D’s retirement 

`A=12,00,000xx3/6` 

=`"Rs"  6,00,000 ` 

` B=12,00,000xx2/6` 

= `"Rs"  4,00,000` 

`C=12,00,000xx1/6` 

=`"Rs " 2,00,000`
