The Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹1,50,000, while the claim against it is ₹66,000. The old partners share profits in the ratio 4:3:2. How much of the excess reserve will be credited to the account of the third old partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹18,667

The excess reserve is ₹1,50,000 − ₹66,000 = ₹84,000. This amount is credited to the old partners in their old ratio of 4:3:2. Therefore, the third partner’s share is \(₹84,000 \times \frac{2}{9} = ₹18,666.67\), which is ₹18,667 when rounded to the nearest rupee. ₹84,000 is the total excess reserve, while ₹28,000 is the second partner’s share. Exam tip: When a reserve has an associated claim, deduct the claim first and distribute only the balance in the old ratio.
