The firm’s estimated annual profit is ₹14,64,000. According to the partnership deed, the deceased partner’s profit-sharing ratio is 1/4. If the partner died 3 months after the beginning of the accounting year, what amount represents the partner’s share of profit up to the date of death? Assume that profit is earned evenly throughout the year.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹91,500

Profit earned up to the date of death = ₹14,64,000 × 3/12 = ₹3,66,000. The deceased partner’s share = ₹3,66,000 × 1/4 = ₹91,500, so option A is correct. Option B represents 1/4 of the full annual profit and ignores the three-month time adjustment. Exam tip: first apportion the annual profit for the period up to death, and then apply the deceased partner’s profit-sharing ratio.
