Question 2. Explain the accounting treatment of goodwill on retirement of a partner.

Answer:

For Accounting Treatment of Goodwill, guidelines of Accounting Standard-26 on Accounting for intangible Assets are followed.

When goodwill does not appear in the books:-

When Goodwill does not appear in the Balance Sheet, there are three ways in which the retiring or deceased partner can be given the credit for his share of goodwill as follows:

 

(a)  Goodwill Account is not Raised in the books of Account: Retiring or deceased partner’s share of the current value of Goodwill is credited to his Capital Account by debiting Gaining Partner’s Capital in their gaining ratio. 

Gaining Partners’ Capital A/c…………………..Dr.

To Retiring/Deceased Partner’s Capital A/c

(Being the share of goodwill credited to retiring/deceased partner debiting gaining partner’s Capital account in their gaining ratio)

 

(b)  Goodwill is Raised at its Full Value and Written off: Goodwill Account is debited with the current value of goodwill, crediting Capital Accounts of all the partners, including retiring or deceased partner in their old profit-sharing ratio. Goodwill account so debited is immediately written off by debiting continuing partners capital account, in their new profit-sharing ratio and crediting goodwill account with its current value.

Goodwill A/c…………………..Dr.

To All Partner’s Capital A/c

(Being the goodwill raised at its current value)

 

Continuing Partner’s Capital A/c…………………..Dr.

To Goodwill A/c

(Being the goodwill Account written off in new profit-sharing ratio)

 

When goodwill appears in the books:-

Goodwill appearing in the books of account means it is purchase goodwill because self-generated goodwill is not recorded in the books of account following AS-26, Intangible Assets. Goodwill appearing in the books of account is written off by debiting all the partners’ Capital Accounts including retiring or deceased partner in their old profit-sharing ratio. The journal entry passed is:

All Partners’ Capital A/c………………..Dr.

To Goodwill A/c

(Being the existing goodwill written off) 

 

Question 3. Why are assets and liabilities revalued on the retirement or death of a partner?

Answer:

At the time of retirement or death of a partner, assets of the firm are revalued and liabilities are reassessed with a purpose that the retiring partner is not at an advantage or disadvantage because of the change in the values. To give effect to the change in value, a Profit and Loss Adjustment Account and Revaluation Account is prepared in the same manner is prepared at the time if admission of a partner. To recapitulate:

1.)   Increase in the value of assets, unrecorded assets, decrease in amount of liabilities and excess provisions written back are credited to Revaluation Account.

2.)   Decrease in value of assets, increase in amount of liabilities, liabilities provided and unrecorded liabilities are debited to it.

3.)   Gain or loss from the revaluation is distributed among the partners in their old profit-sharing ratio. Gain on revaluation is credited to the Partners’ Capital Account or Partner’s Current Accounts.

4.)   After revaluation, assets and liabilities are shown at their revised value in new balance sheet of the firm.

 

Question 4. Distinguish between the sacrificing ratio and the gaining ratio among partners.

Question 1:  Gita, Radha and Garv were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/2, 2/5 and 1/10. Find the new ratio of the remaining partners if C retires.

Answer  1:

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-2

If Garv retires then the New Profit Sharing Ratio will be Gita:Radha = 5:4

About Solution:-
The ratio of remaining partners is known as New Profit Sharing Ratio, in which they will share the future profits. When a partner retires from the firm, the remaining partners acquired share of retiring partner either in their old ratio or in specified ratio.

Things to Remember:
All free reserves and profits given in the liabilities side should be credited to Partner's Capital Accounts or Current Account (If Capitals are fixed) and all fictitious assets/ accumulated losses should be debited to the Partner's Capital Account or Current Account (If Capitals are fixed) in their old ratios.

Important Notes:
Treatment of Revaluation of Assets and Re-assessment of liabilities and Preparation of Revaluation Account is same as we have done in case of Admission of a partner. In case of Retirement also we will distribute Revaluation Profits/Losses to all the partners in their old ratios.

 

Question 2:  From the following particulars, calculate new profit-sharing ratio of the partners:

(a) Shiv, Mohan and Hari were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 5:5:4. Mohan retired and his share was divided equally between Shiv and Hari.

(b) P, Q and R were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 5:4:1. P retires from the firm. 

Answer 2:

(a) Old Ratio of Shiv: Mohan: Hari = 5:5:4

 TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-3

(b) Old Ratio of P: Q: R = 5:4:1 

Therefore New Ratio of Q : R = 4:1

About Solution:-
Change in Profit Sharing Ratio in the event of admission of a Partner: In the event of admission of a partner in the existing firm, the incoming partner becomes entitled to share future profits of the firm. 

Things to Remember:
Such share is acquired by the incoming partner from old partners, therefore, it is necessary to determine new profit sharing ratio and also the gaining or sacrificing ratio. The new partner may acquire his share from old partner or partners in old ratio, in a particular ratio (sacrificing ratio) or in a particular fraction from old partners.

Important Notes:
Old partners will continue to share balance profits or losses in their old profit sharing ratio. It means that, in the absence of any information, profit sharing ratio among the existing partners remains unchanged.

 

Question 3:   R, S and M are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 2/5,2/5 and 1/5. M decides to retire from the business and his share is taken by R and S in the ratio of 1:2. Calculate the new profit-sharing ratio. 

Answer  3: 

Old Ratio of R:S:M = 2:2:1

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-4

About Solution:-
In such situation, share of existing or old partners will change to the extent of share sacrificed on admission of the new or incoming partner.

Things to Remember:
New share of profits of the existing partners in the reconstituted firm is determined by deducting the sacrifice made by them from their existing share of profits.

Important Notes:
In such situation, share of new or incoming partner is to be determined by adding the shares surrendered by the old partners in favour of new or incoming partner.

 

Question 4: X, Y and Z are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/2, 3/10, and 1/5. Calculate the gaining ratio of remaining partners when Y retires from the firm. 

Answer   4:

 TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-6

About Solution:-
Total of shares surrendered by all the partners in favour of new or incoming partner is considered as the share of new or incoming partner.

Things to Remember:
In the event of admission of a partner in a partnership firm, some partners sacrifice while some partners gain.

Important Notes:
Gain in profit share can be calculated from such shares sacrificed by the partners or where old and new share is given, by using the below mentioned formula:
Gaining Share = New Share - Old Share

 

Question 5: Sarthak, Vansh and Mansi were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 4:3:2. Sarthak retires. Vansh and Mansi will share future profits in the ratio of 2:1. Determine the gaining ratio. 

Answer  5:

Answer 6:

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-7

About Solution:-
In case of change in profit sharing ratio among the partners or admission or retirement/death of a partner, goodwill is not to be raised in the books of the firm as no consideration in money or money's worth is paid for it. If goodwill is raised, it should be immediately written off.

Things to Remember:
Accounting Treatment of Goodwill at the time Of Admission Of a Partner: In the event of admission of a partner, new partner who acquires the share in future profits from the existing partners should compensate sacrificing partners by paying them an amount. This amount paid by the incoming partner is termed as Goodwill or Premium for Goodwill. Accounting treatment of such Goodwill has been explained with respect to 5 situations which may arise in the event of partner's admission.

Important Notes:
Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is paid privately;
Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is brought in cash or by cheque by the new or Incoming Partner and is retained in business;
Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is brought in cash or by cheque by the new or Incoming Partner and is withdrawn by Sacrificing Partners fully or partly; 
Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is brought in kind;
Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is not brought in full or a part by the new or Incoming Partner.

Answer 7:

Old Ratio of Kumar : Lakshya : Manoj : Naresh = 3:2:1:4

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-8

About Solution:-
Goodwill existing in the books of the firm is written off by debiting Old Partners' Capital Account/Current Account in their Old Profit Sharing Ratio and crediting Goodwill Account.
Old Partners' Capital/Current A/c Dr. (in Old Ratio)
To Goodwill A/c

Things to Remember:
Accounting Treatment when Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is paid privately: In this situation, Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is paid by the new or Incoming Partner privately to the sacrificing partners. In such situation, journal entry is not passed in the books of account of the firm.

Important Notes:
Accounting Treatment when Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is brought in cash or by cheque by the new or Incoming Partner and is retained in business: In this situation, either of the 2 options are to be followed to record the accounting treatment of Goodwill:
Amount brought in by the new or Incoming Partner is transferred to Capital Accounts Of the sacrificing partners in their sacrificing ratio. Following entries are to be passed:
Brought in cash by the new or incoming partner:

1.) Cash/Bank A/c    . Dr. [With share of Goodwill]
To Premium for Goodwill A/c

Question 8:  A, B, and C were partners in a firm sharing profits in 8:4:3. B retires and his share is taken up equally by A and C. Find the new profit-sharing ratio. 

Answer  8:

Old Ratio of A:B:C = 8:4:3

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-9

About Solution:-
Amount of Goodwill is credited to the New Partner's Capital Account and thereafter, adjusted in favour of Old or existing partners in their sacrificing ratio for which following entries are passed:
i. Cash/Bank A/c Dr.
To New Partner's Capital
ii. New Partner's Capital A/ Dr.
To Sacrificing Partner's Capital/Current A/c (Individually)
(Being the goodwill brought by new partner distributed 
among the sacrificing partners in their sacrificing ratio)

Things to Remember:
Accounting Treatment when Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is brought in cash or by cheque by the new or Incoming Partner and is withdrawn by Sacrificing Partners fully or partly: Such amount of premium brought in by the new or incoming partner is shared by the sacrificing partners in the sacrificing ratio. These sacrificing partners may withdraw the premium amount fully or partly.

Important Notes:
Accounting Treatment when Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is brought in kind: In such situation, the assets brought in are debited individually with their values and Premium for Goodwill Account is credited with his share of goodwill and also new Partner's Capital Account with his capital. Such Premium for Goodwill is transferred to the Capital Accounts of the sacrificing partners in their sacrificing ratio.

 

Question 9:  A, B, and C are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 5:3:2. C retires and his share is taken up by A. Calculate new profit-sharing ratio of A and B.
 
Answer 9:
 
Old Ratio of A:B:C = 5:3:2
A’S New Share = 5/10 + 2/10 = 5+2 / 10 = 7 / 10
B’s New Share = 3 / 10
New Ratio of A:B = 7:3

About Solution:-
Accounting Treatment when Goodwill (Premium on Goodwill) is not brought in full or a part by the new or Incoming Partner: In such case, premium for goodwill account is credited with the amount of premium for goodwill brought by the new or incoming partner. Transfer entry is to be passed by debiting New or Incoming Partner's Capital/Current Account with the amount of premium on goodwill not brought by him besides debiting premium for Goodwill Account with the amount of premium paid by him. Where, Fixed Capital Accounts method is used for maintaining Capital Accounts, it is debited to his Current Account.

Things to Remember:
Revaluation of assets and reassessment of liabilities is to be done. The net increase or decrease is then adjusted in the existing partner's capital account in their old profit sharing ratio.

Important Notes:
Change in Profit Sharing Ratio in the event of admission of a Partner: In the event of admission of a partner in the existing firm, the incoming partner becomes entitled to share future profits of the firm. Such share is acquired by the incoming partner from old partners, therefore, it is necessary to determine new profit sharing ratio and also the gaining or sacrificing ratio. The new partner may acquire his share from old partner or partners in old ratio, in a particular ratio (sacrificing ratio) or in a particular fraction from old partners.

 

Question 10:  Murli, Naveen and Omprakash are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 3/8, 1/2 and 1/8. Murli retires and surrenders 2/3rd of his share in favour of Naveen and remaining share in favour of Omprakash. Calculate new profit-sharing ratio and gaining ratio of the remaining partners. 

Answer  10:

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-10

About Solution:-
When old ratio and new ratio of the old and existing partners is available, sacrificing ratio is to be calculated by deducting the new share from the old share.
Formula used is as follows:
Sacrificing Share = Old Share - New Share

Things to Remember:
The share surrendered by the partner is deducted from his old share of profit to determine his share in the reconstituted firm.
Total of shares surrendered by all the partners in favour of new or incoming partner is considered as the share of new or incoming partner.

Important Notes:
Like admission and changes in profit sharing ratio in case of retirement or death also the existing partnership deep comes to end and the new once comes into exist- tense among the remaining partner. There is not much difference in the accounting treatment at the time of retirement or in the event of death.

 

Question 11:  P, Q and R are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 7:5:3. P retires and it is decided that profit sharing ratio between Q and R will be same as existing between P and Q. Calculate New Profit sharing ratio and Gaining Ratio.

Answer 11:

Old Ratio of P : Q : R = 7 : 5 : 3

New Ratio of Q : R = 7 : 5

Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio

Q’s Gain = New Share – Old Share = 7 / 12  -  5 / 15 = 35 - 20 / 60 = 15 / 60

R’s Gain = New Share – Old Share = 5 / 12 - 3/15 = 25 - 12 / 60 = 13 / 60

Gaining Ratio of Q : R = 15:13

 

Treatment of Goodwill

 

Question 12:  Sunil, Shahid and David are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 4:3:2. Shahid retires and the goodwill is valued at Rs. 72,000. Calculate Shahid's share of goodwill and pass the necessary Journal entry for Goodwill. Sunil and David decided to share the future profits and losses in the ratio of 5:3.

Answer  12:

TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-1

Points of Knowledge:
Old Ratio of L:M:O = 4:3:2
New Ratio of L:O = 5:3
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
L’s Gain = 5/8 - 4 / 9 = 45-32 / 72 = 13 / 72
O’s Gain = 3/8 - 2 / 9 = 27-16 / 72 = 11 / 72
Therefore, Gaining Ratio of L:O = 13:11
Goodwill of the firm = 72,000
M’s Share of goodwill = 72,000 × 3/9 = 24,000
L will transfer for goodwill to M = 24,000 × 13 / 24 = 13,000
O will transfer for goodwill to M = 24,000 × 11 / 24 = 11,000
Condition for goodwill treatment: Remaining Partners to Retiring Partner

About Solution:-

Question 13:  P, Q, R and S were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 5:3:1:1. On 1st January, 2023, S retired from the firm. On S's retirement the goodwill of the firm was valued at Rs. 4,20,000. The new profit-sharing ratio between P, Q and R will be 4:3:3. Showing your working notes clearly, pass necessary journal entry for the treatment of goodwill in the books of the firm on S's retirement.

Answer 13:

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-13

Points of Knowledge:
Old Ratio of P:Q:R:S = 5:3:1:1
New Ratio of P:Q:R = 4:3:3
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
P’s Gain = 4/10 - 5/10 = 4-5 / 10 = - 1 / 10 (Sacrifice)
Q’s Gain = 3/10 - 3/10 = 3-3 / 10 = 0 / 10
R’s Gain = 3/10 - 1/10 = 3-1 / 10 = 2 / 10
S’s Sacrifice = 1/10
Therefore Sacrificing Ratio of P:S = 1:1
Goodwill treatment: Gaining partner to Sacrificing partner
Goodwill of the firm = 4,20,000
R’s Capital Account debited for goodwill = 4,20,000 × 2 / 10 = 84,000
P’s Capital Account credited for goodwill = 4,20,000 × 1 / 10 = 42,000
S’s Capital Account credited for goodwill = 4,20,000 × 1 / 10 = 42,000

About Solution:-
This outgoing partners A/c is settled as per the terms of partnership deed. Three cases may be there as given below-
When the retiring partner is paid full amount either in cash or by cheque:-

Retiring Partner’s Capital A/c Dr.
To retiring partner’s Loan A/c

Important Notes:
When Retiring Partner is partly paid in cash and the remaining amount in treated Loan.
Retiring Partner’s Capital A/c Dr. (Total Amount due)
To Cash Bank A/c (Amount Paid)

Therefore, Gaining Ratio of A:C = 12:9 = 4:3
Goodwill of the firm = 14,000
B will be compensated for goodwill = 14,000 × 3/10 = 4,200
A will transfer for goodwill to B = 4,200 × 4/7 = 2,400
C will transfer for goodwill to B = 4,200 × 3/7 = 1,800
Condition for goodwill treatment : Remaining partner to Retiring partner

About Solution:-
Excess of Deficiency of capital in the individual capital A/c is calculated. Such excess or shortage is adjusted by withdrawal or contribution in case or transferring to their current A/cs.
Journal Entries:-
(a) For excess Capital withdrawn by the Partners
Partner’s capital A/c Dr.
    To Cash/Bank A/c
(b) For deficiency, cash will be brought in by the partner
Cash/Bank A/c Dr.
    To Partner’s capital A/c

Things to Remember:
At the time of retirement/death, the remaining partners may decide to adjust their capitals in their new profit sharing Ratio. Then the sum of their capitals will be treated as the total capital of the new firm which will be divided in their New Profit Sharing Ratio.

Important Notes:
Accounting treatment in the case of death is same as in the case of return except the Following:
1. The deceased partners claim is transferred to his executer’s account.
2. Normally the retirement takes place at the end of the Accounting pried but the death may occur at any time. Hence the claim of deceased part shall also include his share or profit or loss, interest on capital drawings if any from the date of the last balance sheet to the date his death.
3. Calculation of profit/Loss for the intervening Period.

 TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-58 

Points of Knowledge:

Note 1: Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio

Old Ratio of X : Y : Z = 3 : 2 : 1

New Ratio of X : Y = 3 : 2

Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio

X’s Gain = 3/5 - 3/6 = (18-15)/30 = 3/30

Y’s Gain = 2/5 - 2/6 = (12-10)/30 = 2/30

Therefore Gaining Ratio of X : Y = 3 : 2

Note 2:

Goodwill of the firm = 34,800

Z’s share of goodwill = 34,800 × 1/6 = 5,800

X will transfer for goodwill to Z = 5,800 × 3/5 = 3,480

Y will transfer for goodwill to Z = 5,800 × 2/5 = 2,320

Condition for goodwill treatment: Remaining Partners to Retiring Partner

""TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-1

About Solution:-
The ratio of remaining partners is known as New Profit Sharing Ratio, in which they will share the future profits. When a partner retires from the firm, the remaining partners acquired share of retiring partner either in their old ratio or in specified ratio.

Things to Remember:
All free reserves and profits given in the liabilities side should be credited to Partner's Capital Accounts or Current Account (If Capitals are fixed) and all fictitious assets/ accumulated losses should be debited to the Partner's Capital Account or Current Account (If Capitals are fixed) in their old ratios.

Important Notes:
Treatment of Revaluation of Assets and Re-assessment of liabilities and Preparation of Revaluation Account is same as we have done in case of Admission of a partner. In case of Retirement also we will distribute Revaluation Profits/Losses to all the partners in their old ratios.

""TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-2

About Solution:-
On retirement of a partner, it is required to revalue assets and liabilities just as in the case of admission of a partner. If there is revaluation profit, then such profit should be distributed amongst the existing partners including the retiring partner at the existing profit sharing ratio. On the other hand, if there is loss on revaluation that is also to be distributed to all the partners including the retiring partner at the existing profit sharing ratio. To arrive at, profit or loss on revaluation of assets and liabilities, a Revaluation Account or Profit and Loss Adjustment Account is opened. Revaluation Account or Profit and Loss Adjustment Account is closed automatically by transfer of profit or loss balance to the Partners' Capital Accounts.

Things to Remember:
If it is decided that revalued figures of assets and liabilities will not appear in the balance sheet of the continuing partners, then a journal entry should be passed with the amount payable or chargeable to the retiring partner which the continuing partners will share at the ratio of gain. 

Important Notes:
In the first instance, the journal entry for distribution of profit or loss on revaluation which will appear in the balance sheet also is as follows:
Revaluation A/c Dr.
   To Partner’s Capital A/c
(for profit on revaluation)

Partner’s Capital A/c

""TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-5

Points of Knowledge:

Note 1: Calculation of New and Gaining Ratio
Old Ratio of A : B : C = 45,000 : 30,000 : 15,000: = 3:2:1
New Ratio of A:C = 3 :1
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
A’s Gain = 3/4 - 3/6 = (18-12)/24 = 6/24
C’s Gain = 1/4 - 1/6 = (6-4)/24 = 2/24
Therefore, Gaining Ratio of A:C = 6 : 2 = 3 :1

Treatment of goodwill:
Goodwill of the firm = 18,000
B will be compensated for goodwill = 18,000 × 2/6 = 6,000
A will transfer for goodwill to B = 6,000 × ¾ = 4,500
C will transfer for goodwill to B = 6,000 × ¼ = 1,500
Condition for goodwill treatment: Remaining partner to Retiring partner

Note 2:
Capital Adjustment:
A’s Capital = 60,000 × ¾ = 45,000
C’s Capital = 60,000 × ¼ = 15,000

Note 3:
Closing Bank Balance = 13,000 – 5,000 + 3,000 + 1,000 = 12,000

About Solution:-
The following adjustments are necessary in the capital A/c
(i) Transfer of reserve,
(ii) Transfer of goodwill,
(iii) Transfer of profit/loss on revaluation

Things to Remember:
The continuing partners may discharge the whole claim at the time of retirement. Then the journal entry will appear as follows:
Retiring partner’s capital A/c
    To Bank A/c

Important Notes:
Sometimes the retiring partner agrees to retain some portion of his claim in the partnership as loan. The journal entry will be follows:
Retiring Partner’s Capital A/c
   To Retiring Partner’s loan A/c
   To Bank A/c

Answer 46:

TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-36

Working Note:-
Total Capital = Rs. 33,730 + Rs. 31,243
Total Capital = Rs. 64,973

N’s Capital = Rs. 64,973 × 3/4 = Rs. 48,730
S’s Capital = Rs. 64,973 × 1/4 = Rs. 16,243

Calculation of Partners share in Goodwill:-
Goodwill = Rs. 21,000
B’s Share in Goodwill = Rs. 21,000 × 2/6 = Rs. 7,000
N and S contribute B’s Share in gaining Ratio 3:1.

Therefore Gaining Ratio of Sneh : Usha = 0 : 2

Note 2: Treatment of goodwill:
Goodwill of the firm = 2,80,000
Kusum will be compensated for goodwill = 2,80,000 × 2/7 = 80,000 by usha only.
Condition for goodwill treatment: Gaining partner to Retiring partner.

Note 3: Capital Adjustment:
Total Capital of the new firm = 14,00,000
Sneh’s Capital = 14,00,000 × 3/7 = 6,00,000
Usha’s Capital = 14,00,000 × 4/7 = 8,00,000

Note 4 : Closing Bank Balance = 2,00,000 + 25,714 – 4,97,143 – 1,00,000 = 6,22,857

About Solution:-
Calculation of Gaining Ratio: It is the ratio in which retiring partner's share is acquired by the remaining partner.
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio — Old Ratio

Things to Remember:
Treatment of Goodwill:
1. At the time of retirement of a partner, he/she will get his/her capital, profit, reserves etc. and also goodwill.
2. The goodwill of retiring partner will be calculated and will be adjusted among remaining partners in gaining ratio.
3. Retiring Partner's share of goodwill = Total Goodwill of the firm x Retiring Partner's share.

Question 48: Lal, Bal and Pal are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 5:3:7. Lal retired from the firm. Bal and Pal decided to share future profits in the ratio of 2:3. The adjusted Capital Accounts of Bal and Pal showed balances of ₹ 49,500 and ₹ 1,05,750 respectively. The total amount to be paid to Lal is ₹ 1,35,750. This amount is to be paid by Bal and Pal in a manner that their capitals become proportionate to their new profit-sharing ratio.
Calculate the amount to be brought or to be paid to partners.

Answer 48:

Total Capital of the firm = Rs. 49,500 + Rs. 1,05,750 + Rs. 1,35,750
Total Capital of the firm = Rs. 2,91,000

Bal’s Capital = Rs. 2,91,000 × 2/5 = Rs. 1,16,400

Pal’s Capital = Rs. 2,91,000 × 3/5 = Rs. 1,74,600

Bal’s Capital = Capital in firm - Adjusted Capital 
Bal’s Capital = Rs. 1,16,400 - Rs. 49,500
Bal’s Capital = Rs. 66,900

Pal’s Capital = Capital in firm - Adjusted Capital 
Pal’s Capital = Rs. 1,74,600 - Rs. 1,05,750

About Solution:-
Change in Profit Sharing Ratio in the event of admission of a Partner: In the event of admission of a partner in the existing firm, the incoming partner becomes entitled to share future profits of the firm. 

Things to Remember:
Such share is acquired by the incoming partner from old partners; therefore, it is necessary to determine new profit sharing ratio and also the gaining or sacrificing ratio. The new partner may acquire his share from old partner or partners in old ratio, in a particular ratio (sacrificing ratio) or in a particular fraction from old partners.

Important Notes:
Old partners will continue to share balance profits or losses in their old profit sharing ratio. It means that, in the absence of any information, profit sharing ratio among the existing partners remains unchanged.

Working Note:-
Average Profit = (2,00,000+2,35,000+3,00,000+2,75,000+3,25,000)/5
Average Profit = 13,35,000/5
Average Profit = Rs. 2,67,000

Goodwill of the Firm = Average Profit × No. of year purchases
Goodwill of the Firm = Rs. 2,67,000 × 2
Goodwill of the Firm = Rs. 5,34,000

Chetan’s Share in Goodwill = Rs. 5,34,000 × 1/5
Chetan’s Share in Goodwill = Rs. 1,68,000
Gaining Ratio = 1:1
Amit’s Contribution = Rs. 1,68,000 × 1/2 = Rs. 53,400

Banty’s Contribution = Rs. 1,68,000 × 1/2 = Rs. 53,400

Calculation of Chetan’s Share in Profit:-
Average Profit = 3,00,000+2,75,000+3,25,000 /3
Average Profit = 9,00,000/3
Average Profit = Rs. 3,00,000

Answer :

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-16

Points of Knowledge:
 
Old Ratio of Hanny : Pammy : Sunny = 3:2:1
New Ratio of Hanny:Sunny = 2:1
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
Hanny’s Gain = 2/3 - 3/6 = (4-3)/6 = 1/6
Sunny’s Gain = 1/3 - 1/6 = (2-1)/6 = 1/6
Therefore Gaining Ratio of Hanny:Sunny = 1:1
Goodwill of the firm revalued at Rs 84,000
Hanny’s Capital Account debited for Goodwill = 84,000 × 1/6 = 14,000
Sunny’s Capital Account debited for Goodwill = 84,000 × 1/6 = 14,000
Pammy’s Capital Account credited for Goodwill = 84,000 × 2/6 = 28,000

Saurabh’s Gain = 1/6 - 1/6 = (1-1)/6 = 0/6
Therefore Gaining Ratio of Pankaj : Saurabh = 2 : 0
Goodwill of the firm = 42,000
Naresh’s Capital Account will be credited for his share of Goodwill 
= 42,000 × 2/6 = 14,000
Pankaj’s Capital Account will be debited for his share of Goodwill
= 42,000 × 2/6 = 14,000
Saurabh’s Capital Account will be debited for his share of Goodwill
= 42,000 × 0/6 = 0

TS Grewal Solution Class 12 Chapter 6 Retirement of a Partner 2020 2021-51

Points of Knowledge:  

Note 1: Calculation of Gaining Ratio:

Old Ratio of X : Y : Z = 4:3:2

New Ratio of X : Z = 2:1

Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio

X’s Gain = 2/3 - 4/9 = (6-4)/9 = 2/9

Z’s Gain = 1/3 - 2/9 = (3-2)/9 = 1/9

Therefore Gaining Ratio of X : Z = 2:1

Note 2:

Goodwill of the firm = 5,400

Y’s share of Goodwill = 5,400 × 3/9 = 1,800

X will transfer for goodwill to Y = 1,800 × 2/3 = 1,200

Z will transfer for goodwill to Y = 1,800 × 1/3 = 600

Condition for goodwill treatment: Remaining Partner to Retiring partner

Note 1: Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio
Old Ratio of X : Y : Z = 3 : 2 : 1
New Ratio of X : Y = 3 : 2
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
X’s Gain = 3/5 - 3/6 = (18-15)/30 = 3/30
Y’s Gain = 2/5 - 2/6 = (12-10)/30 = 2/30

Answer :
""TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-4
""TS-Grewal-Solution-Class-12-Chapter-6-Retirement-of-a-Partner-5
 
Old Ratio of A : B : C = 45,000 : 30,000 : 15,000: = 3:2:1
New Ratio of A:C = 3 :1
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio
A’s Gain = 3/4 - 3/6 = 18-12/24 = 6/24
C’s Gain = 1/4 - 1/6 = 6-4/24 = 2/24
Therefore, Gaining Ratio of A:C = 6 : 2 = 3 :1
Treatment of goodwill:
Goodwill of the firm = 18,000
B will be compensated for goodwill = 18,000 × 2/6 = 6,000
A will transfer for goodwill to B = 6,000 × ¾ = 4,500
C will transfer for goodwill to B = 6,000 × ¼ = 1,500
Condition for goodwill treatment: Remaining partner to Retiring partner
Note 2:
Capital Adjustment:
A’s Capital = 60,000 × ¾ = 45,000
