Working Notes : 
WN 1:
Old Ratio = E : F
                   3  :  1 
                   E : F : G
New Ratio = 9 : 1 : 1

Sacrificing Ratio = Old Ratio - New Ratio
E's = `3/4 - 1/3 = 5/12`

F's = `1/4 - 1/3 = -1/12`

WN2
Calculation of F’s share of gain in goodwill
G’s share of Goodwill = 50,000 + 70,000 = Rs 1, 20,000
Goodwill of the firm on the basis of G’s share = 1,20,000 x `3/1` = Rs. 3,60,000

F’s share of gain in goodwill = 3,60,000 x `1/12` = Rs. 30,000.
