Question 4:

Why do firm revaluate assets and reassess their liabilities on retirement or on the event of death of a partner?

Answer:

At the time of retirement or death of a partner, it becomes inevitable to revalue the assets and liabilities of the firm for ascertaining their true and fair values. The revaluation is necessary as the value of assets and liabilities may increase or decrease with the passage of time. Further, it may be possible that there are certain assets and liabilities that remained unrecorded in the books of accounts. The retiring or the deceased partner may be benefited or may bear loss due to change in the values of assets and liabilities. Therefore, the revaluation of the assets and liabilities is necessary in order to ascertain the true profit or loss that is to be divided among all the partners in their old profit sharing ratio.

Page No 218:

Question 5:

Why a retiring/deceased partner is entitled to a share of goodwill of the firm?

Answer:

Goodwill is an intangible asset of a firm that is earned by the efforts of all the partners of the firm. After the retirement or death of a partner, the fruits of the past performance and reputation will be shared only by the remaining partners. Thus the remaining partners should compensate the retiring or the deceased partner by entitling him/her a share of firm's goodwill.

Question 3:

Explain the treatment of goodwill at the time of retirement or on the event of death of a partner?

Answer:

At the time of retirement or at the event of death of a partner, the goodwill is adjusted among the partners in gaining ratio with the share of goodwill of the retiring or the deceased partner. As per Para 16 of Accounting Standard 10, it is mandatory to record goodwill in the books only when consideration in money or money’s worth has been paid for it.

In case of retirement and death of a partner, goodwill account cannot be raised. There are namely two probable situations on which the treatment of goodwill rests.

 

1. If goodwill already appears in the books of the firm.

2. If no goodwill appears in the books of the firm.

 

Situation 1: If goodwill already appears in the books of the firm.

 

Step 1: Write off the existing goodwill

If goodwill already appears in the old balance sheet of the firm (if mentioned in the question), then first of all, this goodwill should be written off and should be distributed among all the partners of the firm including the retiring or the deceased partner in their old profit sharing ratio. The following Journal entry is passed to write off the old/existing goodwill.

 

All Partners' Capital A/c

Dr.

 

To Goodwill A/c

 

(Goodwill written of among all the partners in their

old ratio)

 

 

Step 2: Adjusting goodwill through partner's capital account.

After writing off the old goodwill, the goodwill need to be adjusted through the partner's capital account with the share of the goodwill of the retiring or the deceased partner. The following Journal entry is passed.

 

Remaining Partner's Capital A/c

Dr.

 

To Retiring/Deceased Partner's Capital A/c

 

(Gaining Partner's Capital A/c is debited in their

gaining share and retiring/deceased partner's capital

account in credited for their share of goodwill)

 

 

Situation 2: If no goodwill appears in the books of the firm.

As no goodwill appears in the books of the firm, so the goodwill is adjusted through the partner's capital account with the share of the goodwill of the retiring or the deceased partner. The following Journal entry is passed. 

 

Remaining Partner's Capital A/c

Dr.

 

To Retiring/Deceased Partner's Capital A/c

 

(Gaining partner's capital account is debited in their gaining

share and retiring/deceased partner's capital account in

Question 4:

Discuss the various methods of computing the share in profits in the event of death of a partner.

Answer:

In case of death of a partner during the year, his/her executer is entitled for share of profit up to the date of death of the partner.

The share of profit can be calculated by one of the two methods.

1) On time basis: Under this method, profit up to the date of the death of the partner is calculated on the basis of the last year's/years' profit or average profit of last few years. In this approach, it is assumed that the profit will be uniform throughout the current year. The deceased partner will be entitled for the share of the profit proportionately up to the date of his/her death.

Share of Deceased Partner in Profit =

Example- A, B and C are equal partners. The profit of the firm for the years 2008, 2009 and 2010 are Rs 10,00,000, Rs 7,00,000 and Rs 13,00,000 respectively. C dies on April 30, 2011. The share of C in the firm's profit will be calculated on the basis of average profit of last three years. Firm closes its books every year on December 31.

In this case, C's share in the profits will be calculated for four months, i.e. from January 01, 2011 to April 30, 2011.

2) On the sale basis: Under this method, profit is calculated on the basis of last year's sale. In this situation, it is assumed that the net profit margin of the current year's sale is similar to that of the last year's.

Share of Deceased Partner's Profit =×Sales from the beginning of the current year up to the date of death × Share of deceased partner

Example- X Y and Z are equal partners. The last year's sales and profit were Rs 25,00,000 and Rs 2,50,000. Z died on the April 30, 2011. Sales of the current year till the date of Z's death amounts to Rs 12,00,000. Firm closes its books on December 31 every year.

Working Notes:

1) Pramod’s share of goodwill = Total goodwill of the firm × Retiring Partner’s Share =

2) Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio

Gaining Ratio between Rajesh and Nishant = 2:1

NOTE: In the above solution, in order to adjust the capital of remaining partners in the new firm according to their new profit sharing ratio, the surplus or the deficit of Capital Account is transferred to their Current Account. But, in order to match the answer with that of given in the book, the surplus or the deficit amount of the Partners' Capital Account, will either be withdrawn or brought in by the old partners. This treatment will be shown in the Partners’ Capital itself and no need to transfer the surplus or deficit capital balance to their Current Accounts. The following Journal entry is passed to record the withdrawal of surplus capital by the partners.

Working Notes:

1. Bharti’s share of profit = Profit is 10% of sales

Sales during the last year for that period were Rs 1,00,000

If sales are Rs 1,00,000, then the profit is Rs 10,000

2. Bharti’s Share of Goodwill

Goodwill of the firm = Average Profit × Number of Years Purchase

Or, 9,000 − 20% of 9,000 = 9,000 − 1,800 = Rs 7,200

Goodwill of the firm = 7,200 × 2 = Rs 14,400

3. Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio

Gaining ratio between Arti and Seema = 3:1

4. Interest on Capital for 73 days, i.e. from April 1, 2016 to June 12, 2016

Interest on capital = Amount of Capital × Ratio of Interest × Period
