Three old partners share profits in the ratio 3:4:3. A new partner acquires 1/5 of the total profit share only from the second and third partners in the ratio 1:3. If the premium for goodwill is ₹60,000, how much premium will the third partner receive?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹45,000

The new partner’s 1/5 share is acquired from the second and third partners in the ratio 1:3. Thus, the second partner sacrifices 1/5 × 1/4 = 1/20, while the third partner sacrifices 1/5 × 3/4 = 3/20. Therefore, the premium is distributed in the ratio 1:3. The third partner receives ₹60,000 × 3/4 = ₹45,000. Exam tip: goodwill premium is credited according to the sacrificing ratio, not the old profit-sharing ratio.
