Working Notes:

WN1Calculation of Gaining Ratio

Old Ratio (A, B and C) = 3 : 2 : 1

B retires from the firm.

New Ratio (A and C) = 3 : 1

Gaining Ratio = 3 : 1

 

WN2 Adjustment of Goodwill

Goodwill of the firm = 36,000

WN3 Calculation of New Capital Balance

Capital of the New Firm = 1,20,000

New Profit Sharing Ratio = 3 : 1

WN4 Calculation of Amount to be brought in/paid off to A and C

Adjusted Old Capital of A = Total of Credit Side – Total of Debit Side

    = 94,500 – 9,000 = 85,500

Adjusted Old Capital of C = Total of Credit Side – Total of Debit Side

    = 31,500 – 3,000 = 28,500
