Why is the deceased partner’s share of profit up to the date of death calculated in a partnership firm?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To include the deceased partner’s profit share in the amount payable to the legal representative

The deceased partner is entitled to the share of profit earned up to the date of death. This share is calculated using the agreed basis, such as time, sales, or average past profits, credited to the deceased partner’s capital or current account, and included in the amount payable to the legal representative. The new profit-sharing ratio and goodwill adjustment are separate calculations; calculating the profit share is not meant to estimate cash needs or increase goodwill. Exam tip: calculate the deceased partner’s profit share only up to the date of death.
