Question
Singh, Gupta and Khan are partners in a firm sharing profits in 3:2:3 ratio. They admitted Jain as a new partner. Singh surrendered 1/3 of his share in favour of Jain: Gupta surrendered 1/4 of his share in favour of Jain and Khan surrendered 1/5 in favour of Jain. Calculate new profit sharing ratio?
Solution
Old Ratio = Singh : Gupta : Khan
= 3 : 2 : 3
= `3/8 : 2/8 : 3/8`
Singh Surrender = `1/3` of his share
Gupta Surrender = `1/4` of his share
Khan Surrender = `1/5` of his share
Sacrificing Ratio = Old Ratio × Surrender Ratio
Singh’s = `3/8 xx 1/3 = 3/24`
Gupta’s = `2/8 xx 1/4 = 2/32`
Khan’s = `3/8 xx 1/5 = 3/40`
New Ratio = Old Ratio − Sacrificing Ratio
Singh’s = `3/8 - 3/24 = [ 9 -3 ]/24 = 6/24`
Gupta’s = `2/8 - 2/32 = [ 8 -2]/32 = 6/32`
Khan’s = `3/8 - 3/40 = [ 15 - 3]/40 = 12/40`
New Ratio = Singh : Gupta : Khan : Jain
= `6/24 : 6/32 : 12/40 : 21/80`
= ` [120 : 90 : 144 : 126]/480`
= ` 20 : 15 : 24 : 21`
