The profit-sharing ratio of two old partners in a firm is 6:5. The balance of Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹44,000, while Preliminary Expenses of ₹11,000 are still un written. On the admission of a new partner, what will be the net effect on the capital account of the second old partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Credit ₹15,000

The Investment Fluctuation Reserve has a credit balance of ₹44,000 and is distributed among the old partners. The un written Preliminary Expenses of ₹11,000 must be written off as a debit. Therefore, the net gain is ₹44,000 − ₹11,000 = ₹33,000. The second partner’s share under the old ratio is \(\frac{5}{11}\): ₹33,000 × \(\frac{5}{11}\) = ₹15,000. Hence, the second partner’s capital account will be credited by ₹15,000. Exam tip: First calculate the net effect of all adjustments, then distribute it in the old profit-sharing ratio.
