At the time of admission of a new partner, the old partners share profits in the ratio 2:3. The General Reserve is ₹50,000 and the distributable balance of the Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹25,000. What total amount will be credited to the account of the second partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹45,000

The total distributable amount from both reserves is ₹50,000 + ₹25,000 = ₹75,000. Under the old profit-sharing ratio of 2:3, the second partner is entitled to \(\frac{3}{5}\) of this amount. Therefore, the amount credited is ₹75,000 × \(\frac{3}{5}\) = ₹45,000. Option C represents the total reserves, not the second partner’s share. Exam tip: Add all distributable reserves first, then distribute them in the old profit-sharing ratio.
