Question
X and Y are partners sharing profits in 5:3 ratio admitted Z for 1/10 share which he acquired equally for X and Y. Calculate new profit sharing ratio?
Solution
Old Ratio = A : B
= 5 : 3
= `5/8 : 3/8`
Z admits for `1/10` share in the new firm.
X and Y each sacrifice = `1/10 xx 1/2 = 1/20`
New Ratio = Old Ratio − Sacrificing Ratio
X's = `5/8 - 1/20`
= `[25 - 2]/40 = 23/40`
Y's = `3/8 - 1/20`
= `[ 15 - 2 ]/40 = 13/40`
New Ratio = A : B : C
= `23/40 : 13/40 : 1/10`
= `[ 23 : 13 : 4 ]/40`
= `23 : 13 : 4`
