A, B and C share profits in the ratio of 4:3:2. On B’s retirement, A and C agree to share future profits in the ratio of 5:4. The firm’s goodwill is ₹540000. What amount will be credited to B’s Capital Account for goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹180000

B’s old profit-sharing fraction is 3/9 = 1/3. A retiring partner is credited with his old share of the firm’s goodwill; therefore, B’s goodwill credit = ₹540000 × 1/3 = ₹180000. A and C’s new ratio is not needed to calculate B’s entitlement; it is mainly relevant for determining the gaining ratio of the continuing partners. Exam tip: For a retiring partner’s goodwill adjustment, first use the partner’s old profit-sharing ratio.
