How is an old partner's new share calculated in the new profit sharing ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Old share (-) sacrifice

Direct answer: An old partner's new share is old share minus sacrifice, so option A is correct. When a new partner is admitted, the new partner must receive a share of future profits. That share is usually given up by the old partners. Therefore each old partner's new share becomes: old share − the portion sacrificed by that partner. For example, if an old partner had \(1/2\) and sacrificed \(1/12\), the new share is \(1/2−1/12=5/12\). Option A states this correct rule. Option B is wrong because adding sacrifice would increase the old partner's share, whereas sacrifice means giving up profit. Option C reverses the subtraction and can produce a meaningless negative or wrong result. Option D concerns capital and drawings, not profit-sharing ratios. Exam cue: admission means sacrifice; new share = old share − sacrifice.
