A, B and C share profits and losses in the ratio 4:3:3. The Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹65,000, and the market value of the investment exceeds its book value by ₹15,000. After adjusting the reserve and this increase in the investment’s value, what total amount will be credited to B’s Capital Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹24,000

Both the Investment Fluctuation Reserve of ₹65,000 and the ₹15,000 increase in the investment’s market value are credited as gains to the old partners. Thus, the total amount available for distribution is ₹65,000 + ₹15,000 = ₹80,000. B’s share is 3/(4+3+3) = 3/10, so the amount credited to B is ₹80,000 × 3/10 = ₹24,000. ₹19,500 represents only B’s share of the reserve and ignores the increase in the investment’s value. Exam tip: first calculate the total gain or amount to be distributed, then apply the old profit-sharing ratio.
