What is the basis for distributing accumulated profits among old partners?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Old profit sharing ratio

Accumulated profits are amounts earned before the admission or reconstitution of a new partner. They belong to the partners who were members during that earlier period. Therefore, the benefit must be given according to the old profit-sharing ratio, not according to the ratio that will apply after reconstitution. The correct choice is A, old profit-sharing ratio.

To apply the rule, identify the ratio in force when the profit was earned and divide the reserve or accumulated profit in that ratio. The new ratio is used for future profits only. Cash ratio and liability ratio do not show how partners agreed to share profits, so they are not relevant bases for this distribution.
