A, B and C are partners. C retires. C’s share of goodwill is ₹30,000, and A and B gain in the ratio 4:1. How much of the goodwill burden will A bear?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹24,000

When a partner retires, the continuing partners compensate the retiring partner for his share of goodwill. This compensation is borne by the continuing partners in their gaining ratio, because they receive the retiring partner’s future share of profit. Here, A’s gain is 4 parts out of a total of 4 + 1 = 5 parts. Therefore, A’s burden is ₹30,000 × 4/5 = ₹24,000. B will bear the remaining ₹6,000, so the total burden is ₹30,000. Option A is correct. The old profit-sharing ratio is not used for this adjustment, and ₹30,000 is the total amount rather than A’s individual burden.
