Working Notes:
WN 1
Net amount to be adjusted = General reserve + profit and loss A/c (Credit) - Advertisement suspense A/c
= 6,000 + 24,000 - 12,000
= Rs 18,000
WN 2 Calculation of Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio
Old Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 5 : 3 : 2
New Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 2 : 3 : 5
Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio = Old Ratio − New Ratio
X's share = `5/10 - 2/10 = 3/10` (sacrifice)
Y's share = `3/10 - 3/10 = "Nil"`
Z's share = `2/10 - 5/10 = (-3)/10` (gain)
Amount to be debited to X's capital = `18,000 xx 3/10` = Rs 5,400
Amount to be debited to Z's capital = `18,000 xx 3/10` = Rs 5,400
