The Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹1,20,000 and the claim against it is ₹85,000. At the time of admission of a new partner, old partners A and B share profits in the ratio of 4:3. What amount will be credited to A’s Capital Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹20,000

The surplus in the Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹35,000, calculated as ₹1,20,000 − ₹85,000. Since the claim is lower than the reserve, this surplus is distributed among the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio of 4:3. Therefore, A’s share = ₹35,000 × 4/7 = ₹20,000, which is credited to A’s Capital Account. Exam tip: When the claim is less than the reserve, distribute only the surplus in the old ratio, not the entire reserve.
