Z’s Capital A/c ..Dr. | 5,000 | |||

(Y’s share of goodwill adjusted through X and Y’s Capital Account in gaining ratio, i.e. 3 : 1) | ||||
June 30 | Profit and Loss Suspense A/c ...Dr. | 12,500 | ||
To Y’s Capital A/c | 12,500 | |||
(Y’s profit share till his death debited to P&L Suspense A/c) |
Working Notes:
(1) Calculation of Y's Share of Goodwill
Goodwill of the firm = Rs 60,000
Y's share of goodwill = `60,000 xx 2/6`
= ₹ 20,000
20,000 will be debited to X's and Z's capital A/c in gaining ratio of 3 : 1
X will pay = `20,000 xx 3/4`
= ₹ 15,000
Z will pay = `20,000 xx 1/4`
= ₹ 5,000
(2) Calculation of Y's Share of Profit
Previous yeras profit = ₹ 1,50,000
Y's share of profit (till death) = previous years profit x Ys profit share x 3 months (April 01, 2017)
Y's share of profit (till death) = `1,50,000 xx 2/6 xx 3/12`
= ₹ 12,500
