A has guaranteed B that B’s share of profit will not be less than ₹50,000. A and B share profits in the ratio 4:1. The total profit for the year is ₹1,60,000. What adjustment will be made due to the guarantee?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹18,000 will be transferred from A’s profit to B

In the profit-sharing ratio of 4:1, B’s normal share is \(1/5\) of the total profit: \(₹1,60,000 \times 1/5 = ₹32,000\). B has been guaranteed at least ₹50,000, so the deficiency is \(₹50,000 - ₹32,000 = ₹18,000\). As A gave the guarantee, A must bear this deficiency from A’s share of profit. Therefore, ₹18,000 is transferred from A to B. Exam tip: Find the guaranteed partner’s normal share first and then calculate the shortfall.
