General Reserve is ₹66000 and Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹33000. Investment loss is ₹12000. Old partners share 2:1. What total will be credited to second partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹29000

The direct answer is ₹29,000, option A. Both reserves are first combined, and the investment loss is then deducted. Total available amount = ₹66,000 + ₹33,000 − ₹12,000 = ₹87,000. The old partners share this amount in the ratio 2:1, so total parts are 3. The second partner receives one part: ₹87,000 ÷ 3 = ₹29,000. Option A is correct. Option B, ₹33,000, is the second partner’s one-third of the original total reserves before deducting the loss, so it ignores the adjustment. Option C, ₹22,000, is one-third of the Investment Fluctuation Reserve, not the final distributable amount. Option D, ₹87,000, is the total amount for both partners, not the second partner alone. Always calculate the common distributable total first, then divide according to the ratio.
