A partner dies 7 months after the beginning of the accounting year. If the firm’s estimated annual profit is ₹3,24,000 and profit is assumed to accrue evenly throughout the year, what is the time-apportioned profit up to the date of death?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹1,89,000

Profit up to the date of death = Annual profit × elapsed fraction of the year = ₹3,24,000 × 7/12 = ₹1,89,000. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B represents profit for 8 months, while option C represents profit for 6 months. If the deceased partner’s profit-sharing ratio were given, that ratio would also have to be applied to this time-apportioned profit. Exam tip: Divide annual profit by 12 and multiply by the number of months elapsed.
