A and B share profits and losses in the ratio 3:1. C is admitted to the firm for a 1/4 share of profits and brings a premium of ₹20,000 for goodwill. A and B sacrifice in the ratio 2:1. What amount of the goodwill premium will be credited to B’s Capital Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹6,666.67

Goodwill premium brought by an incoming partner is credited to the sacrificing old partners in their sacrificing ratio. B’s share of the sacrifice is \(1/(2+1)=1/3\). Therefore, the amount credited to B’s Capital Account is \(₹20,000\times1/3=₹6,666.67\) approximately. The old profit-sharing ratio of 3:1 is not used for this distribution. Exam tip: Apply the stated sacrificing ratio directly when allocating goodwill premium.
