A and B share profits and losses in the ratio 5:4. The General Reserve is ₹81,000 and the Capital Reserve is ₹63,000. Before the admission of the new partner C, if both reserves are distributed among the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio, what total amount will be credited to A’s account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹80,000

The combined value of the two reserves is ₹81,000 + ₹63,000 = ₹1,44,000. Since A and B share profits in the old ratio of 5:4, A is entitled to 5/9 of the total amount. Therefore, A’s credit is ₹1,44,000 × 5/9 = ₹80,000. Option B is only A’s share of the General Reserve, whereas option C is the entire combined reserve. Exam tip: Reserves distributed at the time of admission are credited to the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio.
