At the time of admission of a new partner, the Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹1,20,000 and a claim of ₹45,000 exists against it. The remaining reserve is to be distributed among the old partners in the ratio 5:4:3. How much will be credited to the account of the third old partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹18,750

The claim of ₹45,000 must first be adjusted against the Workmen Compensation Reserve. Thus, the distributable balance is ₹1,20,000 − ₹45,000 = ₹75,000. The total ratio is 5 + 4 + 3 = 12, so the third partner’s share is ₹75,000 × 3/12 = ₹18,750. ₹25,000 is incorrect because it does not apply the third partner’s 3/12 share to the distributable balance. Exam tip: deduct the claim from the reserve first, and distribute only the balance in the old profit-sharing ratio.
