how is the capital adjustment done here

X, Y and Z are partners with a profit sharing ratio of 3:1:1. 'Z' decided to retire and to use the final settlement amount for the construction of a overhead tank in a village to provide water to the people. On Z's retirement, the capital balances after all adjustments for goodwill, reserve etc., amounted to : X = 3,50,000 ; Y=4,00,000; Z=2,80,000.  There was a machine which was not recorded in the books. It is now valued at Rs. 1,00,000.  'Z' agreed to take it at that valye. Balance settlement to be made to 'Z' was brought in by 'X' and 'Y' in such a way that their capitals are in proportion to their new profit sharing ratio which is 3:2. Showing your working clearly, pass journal entries for the above transactions and identify the value involved.

  Z’s Capital A/c Dr.   1,00,000  
    To Machinery A/c       1,00,000
  (Machinery taken over by Z)        
           
  Cash/Bank A/c Dr.   2,08,000  
    To X’s Capital A/c       2,08,000
  (Cash brought in by X)        
           
  Y’s Capital A/c Dr.   28,000  
    To Cash/Bank A/c       28,000
  (Cash withdrawn by Y)        

Amount Payable to Z = 2,80,000
Agreed Value of Machine = 1,00,000 (taken over by Z)
Balance Amount Payable = 1,80,000

Total Capital (after all adjustments) = 3,50,000 + 4,00,000 + 1,80,000 = 9,30,000

add the capitals of X and Y 
x's capital + y's capital = 350000+400000
=> 750000
now divide this rs 750000 in the new ratio of 3:2
new capitals
x = 750000 x 3/5 = 450000
y = 750000 x 2/5 = 300000
so X  has to bring rs 100000 and Y has to be paid rs 100000
