On a change in the profit-sharing ratio, gaining partners are debited in which ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In gaining ratio

The governing principle is compensation for a change in the profit-sharing arrangement. When the partners revise their ratio, some partners sacrifice part of their future profit share and others gain an additional share. Goodwill belongs to the existing partners, so the gaining partners must compensate the sacrificing partners for the benefit obtained. The amount is therefore debited to gaining partners in the gaining ratio, calculated as new share minus old share. The sacrificing partners are credited in the sacrificing ratio, calculated as old share minus new share. Hence option A is correct. The old ratio is not the adjustment basis, the sacrificing ratio applies to the partners giving up profit, and capital ratio is unrelated.
