A and B share profits and losses in the ratio 4:1. C is admitted for a 1/5 share, and the new ratio of the old partners becomes 3:1. If C brings ₹25,000 as goodwill premium, who will receive the premium?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Only A

After C’s admission, A’s new share is \(3/5\) and B’s new share is \(1/5\). A’s old share was \(4/5\), so A sacrifices \(4/5-3/5=1/5\). B’s old and new shares are both \(1/5\), so B makes no sacrifice. Therefore, the entire goodwill premium of ₹25,000 goes only to A. The exam tip is to distribute goodwill premium in the sacrificing ratio, not in the old profit-sharing ratio.
