The Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹54,000, and the value of the investments has decreased by ₹18,000. At the time of admission, after adjusting this decrease, the remaining reserve is distributed in the old profit-sharing ratio of 5:4. How much will the first partner receive?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹20,000

The decrease in the value of investments, ₹18,000, is adjusted against the Investment Fluctuation Reserve. Therefore, the remaining reserve is ₹54,000 − ₹18,000 = ₹36,000. In the old ratio 5:4, the first partner’s share is \(\frac{5}{5+4}=\frac{5}{9}\). Hence, the first partner receives ₹36,000 × \(\frac{5}{9}\) = ₹20,000. ₹36,000 is the total remaining reserve, not the first partner’s share. Exam tip: Deduct the investment decrease from the reserve first, then distribute the balance in the old ratio.
