A new partner brings goodwill premium of rupees one lakh fifty thousand and old partners' sacrificing ratio is two to one. What is the second old partner's share?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rupees 50000

The direct answer is option A: the second old partner receives ₹50,000. The new partner brings a goodwill premium of ₹150,000. The old partners’ sacrificing ratio is 2:1, so the total number of parts is 3. The second partner has 1 part, or 1/3 of the premium. Calculation: ₹150,000 × 1/3 = ₹50,000. This amount is credited to the second old partner because the old partners are sacrificing part of their profit share for the new partner. Option A is correct. Option B, ₹100,000, is 2/3 and belongs to the first old partner. Option C, ₹150,000, gives the entire premium to the second partner and ignores the ratio. Option D, ₹75,000, assumes an equal division into two parts, which is not the stated ratio. Always divide goodwill premium according to the sacrificing ratio: first partner 2/3, second partner 1/3.
