WN1: Calculation of Share in General Reserve

Reserve = `(60,000 xx 2)/5` = Rs 24,000

WN2: Calculation of Share in Goodwill

Goodwill = Average profit x No. of years purchase

               = 1,20,000 x 2 

               = Rs 2,40,000

Y's share in goodwill = `2,40,000 xx 2/5` = Rs 96,000,should be contributed by X & Z in 2 : 1

Average profit = `"Total profits of past years given"/"Number of years"`

     =`(1,00,000 + 1,60,000 + 2,20,000 + 4,40,000 - 3,20,000)/5`

     = Rs 1,20,000

WN3: Calculation of Profit & Loss Suspense

Profit & loss suspense (loss) = `(3,20,000 xx 2 xx 3)/(5 xx 12)`

                                              = Rs 32,000
