At the time of admission, the old partners share profits in the ratio 2:3:5. The Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹1,10,000, and an actual claim of ₹80,000 has been accepted against it. What amount will be credited to the capital account of the third old partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹15,000

After adjusting the claim, the surplus reserve is ₹1,10,000 − ₹80,000 = ₹30,000. This surplus is distributed among the old partners in their old ratio of 2:3:5. The third partner’s share is 5/10, so the amount credited is ₹30,000 × 5/10 = ₹15,000. ₹30,000 is the total surplus, not the third partner’s individual share. Exam tip: When a reserve exceeds the related claim, distribute the surplus among the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio.
