Question
A, B, C were partners in a firm sharing profits in 3:2:1 ratio. They admitted D for 10% profits. Calculate the new profit sharing ratio?
Solution
Old Ratio = A : B : C
3 : 2 : 1
= `3/6 : 2/6 : 1/6`
D admits for `10/100` share in the new firm
Let new firm profit = 1
Remaining share of A, B and C in new firm = 1 − D’s share
= 1 - `10/100`
= `90/100`
= `9/10`
New Ratio = Old Ratio × Remaining Share of A, B and C in new firm
A = `3/6 xx 9/10`
= `27/60`
B = `2/6 xx 9/10`
= `18/60`
C = `1/6 xx 9/10`
= `9/60`
New Ratio = A : B: C: D
= `27/60 : 18/60 : 9/60 :1/10` = `[27:18:9:6]/60`
= 9 : 6 : 3 : 2.
