Why are the average profits of previous years used to calculate a deceased partner’s share of profit?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They smooth out abnormal fluctuations and provide a reasonable estimate of normal profit for the current period

The average of previous years’ profits reduces the effect of abnormally high or low profits and estimates the normal profit expected up to the date of death in the current year. Thus, the deceased partner’s share is generally calculated as average profit × period up to death × the partner’s profit-sharing ratio. Capital, asset values and cash balance are not the basis of this estimate. Exam tip: Unless a specific trend or weighted average is prescribed, use the simple average of past profits.
