At the time of admission of a new partner, the Contingency Reserve is ₹90,000, out of which ₹52,000 is required to cover an expected liability. The old partners share profits in the ratio 3:2. What will be the first partner’s share of the balance?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹22,800

First deduct the expected liability from the reserve: ₹90,000 − ₹52,000 = ₹38,000. This balance is distributed among the old partners in the ratio 3:2. Therefore, the first partner’s share is ₹38,000 × 3/5 = ₹22,800. ₹38,000 is the total balance, not the first partner’s share. Exam tip: Always deduct the related expected liability before distributing a reserve.
