Double Entry Book Keeping Ts Grewal Vol I 2018 for Class 12 Commerce Accountancy Chapter 3 - Change In Profit Sharing Ratio Among The Existing Partners

Question 1:

A and B are sharing profits and losses equally. With effect from 1st April, 2018, they agree to share profits in the ratio of 4 : 3. Calculate individual partner's gain or sacrifice due to the change in ration.

Answer:

Old Ratio (A and B) = 1 : 1

New Ratio (A and B) = 4 : 3

Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio = Old Ratio − New Ratio

∴ A’s Gain = 1/14

B’s Sacrifice = 1/14

Question 2:

X, Y and Z are sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 5 : 3 : 2. With effect from 1st April, 2018, they decide to share profits and losses in the ratio of 5 : 2 : 3. Calculate each Partner's gain or sacrifice due to the change in ratio.

Answer:

Old Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 5 : 3 : 2

New Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 5 : 2 : 3

Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio = Old Ratio − New Ratio

∴ Z’s Gain = 1/10

Y’s Sacrifice = 1/10

Question 3:

X, Y and Z are sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 5 : 3 : 2. With effect from 1st April, 2018, they decide to share profits and losses equally. Calculate each partner's gain or sacrifice due to the change in ratio.

Answer:

Old Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 5 : 3 : 2

New Ratio (X, Y and Z) = 1 : 1 : 1

Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio = Old Ratio − New Ratio

∴ Y’s Gain = 1/30

Z’s Gain = 4/30

X’s Sacrifice = 5/30

Question 4:

A, B and C are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 5 : 4 : 1. Calculate new profit-sharing ratio, sacrificing ratio and gaining ratio in each of the following cases:
Case 1. C acquires 1/5th share from A.
Case 2. C acquires 1/5th share equally form A and B.
Case 3. A, B and C will share future profits and losses equally.
Case 4. C acquires 1/10th share of A and 1/2 share of B.

Answer:

$\begin{array}{l} Calculation of New Profit Sharing Ratio \\ Case 1 : \\ A:B:C = 5:4:1 (Old Ratio) \\ C acquires \frac{1}{5} th from A \\ A's sacrifice = \frac{1}{5} \\ C's gain = \frac{1}{5} \\ A = \frac{5}{10} - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{5 - 2}{10} = \frac{3}{10} \\ B = \frac{4}{10} \\ C = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 + 2}{10} = \frac{3}{10} \\ A:B:C = 3:4:3 \\ Case 2 : \\ A:B:C = 5:4:1 (Old Ratio) \\ C acquires \frac{1}{5} th share equally from A \\ A's sacrifice = \frac{1}{10} \\ B's sacrifice = \frac{1}{10} \\ C's gain = \frac{1}{5} \\ A = \frac{5}{10} - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{5 - 1}{10} = \frac{4}{10} \\ B = \frac{4}{10} - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{4 - 1}{10} = \frac{3}{10} \\ C = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 + 2}{10} = \frac{3}{10} \\ A:B:C = 4:3:3 \\ Case 3 : \\ A:B:C = 5:4:1 (Old Ratio) \\ A:B:C = 1:1:1 (New Ratio) \\ A = \frac{5}{10} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{15 - 10}{30} = \frac{5}{30} (S a c r i f i c e) \\ B = \frac{4}{10} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{12 - 10}{30} = \frac{2}{30} (S a c r i f i c e) \\ C = \frac{1}{10} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3 - 10}{30} = - \frac{7}{30} (G a i n) \\ Case 4 : \\ A:B:C = 5:4:1 (Old Ratio) \\ A's sacrifice to C = \frac{5}{10} \times \frac{1}{10} = \frac{1}{20} \\ B's sacrifice to C = \frac{4}{10} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{20} \\ C's gain = \frac{1}{20} + \frac{4}{20} = \frac{5}{20} \\ A = \frac{5}{10} - \frac{1}{20} = \frac{10 - 1}{20} = \frac{9}{20} \\ B = \frac{4}{10} - \frac{4}{20} = \frac{8 - 4}{20} = \frac{4}{20} \\ C = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{5}{20} = \frac{2 + 5}{20} = \frac{7}{20} \\ A:B:C = 9:4:7 \end{array}$

Question 5:

	(Adjustment entry made for change in ratio)

Working Notes:

WN1: Calculation of Sacrifice or Gain

$\begin{array}{l} Mandeep :Vinod :Abbas = 3 :2:1 (Old Ratio) \\ Mandeep :Vinod :Abbas = 1:1:1 (New Ratio) \\ Sacrificing (or Gaining Ratio) = Old Ratio - New Ratio \\ Mandeep's share = \frac{3}{6} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3 - 2}{6} = \frac{1}{6} (S a c r i f i c e) \\ Vinod's share = \frac{2}{6} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2 - 2}{6} = 0 \\ Abbas's share = \frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 - 2}{6} = - \frac{1}{6} (G a i n) \end{array}$

WN2: Valuation of Goodwill

$\begin{array}{l} Goodwill = Average Profit \times No. of years' Purchase \\ = 1, 2 0,000 \times 3 = Rs 3,60,000 \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l} Average Profit = \frac{Total Profits of past years given}{Number of years} \\ = \frac{1, 00, 000 + 1, 50, 000 + 2, 00, 000 + 2, 00, 000 - 50, 000}{5} = Rs 1,20,000 \end{array}$
WN3: Adjustment of Goodwill

$\begin{array}{l} Amount debited to Abbas's Capital A/c = 3,60,000 \times \frac{1}{6} = Rs 60,000 (share of gain) \\ Amount credited to Mandeep's Capital A/c = 3,60,000 \times \frac{1}{6} = Rs 60,000 (share of sacrifice) \end{array}$

	Raj’s Capital A/c	Dr.		7,500
	To Jai’s Capital A/c				7,500
	(Adjustment for goodwill)

Working Notes:

Calculation of Gaining/Sacrificing Ratio

Sacrificing Ratio = Old Ratio ─ New Ratio

$Jai = \frac{3}{5} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{10} (sacrifice) Raj = \frac{2}{5} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{10} (gain)$

Goodwill to be adjusted = 1,00,000 ─ 25,000 = 75,000

$Jai' s Share = 75, 000 \times \frac{1}{10} = 7, 500 (credit, since sacrificing) Raj' s Share = 75, 000 \times \frac{1}{10} = 7, 500 (debit, since gaining)$
