At the time of a partner’s admission, the General Reserve in the books is ₹48,000 and the old partners’ profit-sharing ratio is 5:1. Why will the new partner not receive a share of this reserve?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because the General Reserve was created from profits earned before admission

The General Reserve is an accumulation of profits earned before the new partner’s admission, so it belongs only to the old partners. It will be distributed between them in their old ratio of 5:1—₹40,000 and ₹8,000—not to the incoming partner. Exam tip: Profits or reserves earned before admission are distributed among old partners in their old ratio.
