The capitals of Pinky, Qumar and Roopa after all adjustments in respect of goodwill and revaluation of assets and liabilities have been made are Pinky Rs 80,000, Qumar Rs 30,000 and Roopa Rs 20,000. Calculate the capitals of all the partners and record the necessary journal entries for doing adjustments in respect of capitals according to the agreement between the partners?

Journal Entry

Solution

1) Calculation of new profit sharing Ratio = Old Ratio − Sacrificing Ratio
Pinky = `3/6 - 1/8 = [ 12 -3 ]/24 = 9/24`

Qumar = `2/6 - 1/16 = [ 16 -3 ]/48 = 13/48`

Roopa = `1/6 - 1/16 = [ 8 - 3]/48 = 5/48`

New profit sharing ratio between Pinky, Qumar, Roopa and Seema

`9/24 : 13/48 : 5/48 : 1/4 = 18/48 : 13/48 : 5/48 : 12/48`

= 18 : 13 : 5 : 12

2) Required capital of all partners in the new firm

Pinky's Capital = 2,40,000 x `18/48` = 90,000

Qumar's Capital = 2,40,000 x `13/48` = 65,000

Roopa's Capital = 2,40,000 x `5/48` = 25,000

Seema's Capital = 2,40,000 x `12/48` = 60,000

3) Amount to be brought by each partner

Pinky = 90,000 − 80,000 = 10,000

Qumar = 65,000 − 30,000 = 35,000

Roopa = 25,000 − 20,000 = 5,000

Seema = 2,40,000 x `1/4`  =60,000
