A and B share profits and losses in the ratio 6:4. On C’s admission, C brings a premium of ₹30,000 for goodwill. If A and B sacrifice in the ratio 1:2, how much of the premium will B receive?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹20,000

Goodwill premium is credited to the old partners in their sacrificing ratio, not in their old profit-sharing ratio. B’s share of the sacrifice is \(\frac{2}{1+2}=\frac{2}{3}\). Therefore, B receives \(₹30,000 \times \frac{2}{3}=₹20,000\). ₹10,000 results from applying the 1:2 ratio incorrectly. Exam tip: Always use the sacrificing ratio when distributing a goodwill premium on admission.
