Gain on revaluation of assets and reassessment of liabilities credited to T’s account was Rs. 45,000.
Calculate new profit sharing ratio and total amount of gain (Profit) on revaluation of assets and reassessment of liabilities.
Calculation of New Profit Sharing Ratio:-
R and S will share = 1,50,000 : 75,000
R and S will share = 2 : 1
New Profit Sharing Ratio of R and S will be:
R get 2/3th of T’s Share = 2/3×3/10=6/30
R’s New Ratio = 4/10+6/30=12+6/30=18/30=3/5
S get 1/3th of T’s Share = 1/3×3/10=3/30
S’s New Ratio = 3/10+3/30=9+3/30=12/30=2/5
New Ratio between R and S = 3:2
Total Loss on Revaluation = Rs. 45,000 × 10/3
Total Loss on Revaluation = Rs. 1,50,000

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How is the new profit-sharing ratio calculated on retirement or death of a partner?
The outgoing partner's share is added to the continuing partners' existing shares in their gaining ratio — usually their old ratio unless the question specifies a different arrangement.
Who bears the profit or loss on revaluation when a partner retires or dies?
All partners, including the outgoing one, share the revaluation profit or loss in the OLD ratio, since the revaluation relates to the firm's position before the reconstitution.
How is a deceased partner's share of profit calculated?
It is calculated only for the period from the start of the accounting year up to the date of death, using either a time basis (on the previous year's profit) or a turnover/sales basis as agreed in the partnership deed, and credited to the deceased partner's Executor's Account.
How is the amount due to a retiring or deceased partner settled?
It can be paid immediately in cash, transferred to a Loan Account and paid later (with interest), or paid in agreed instalments — the treatment depends on what the question or partnership deed specifies.
