Which principle is most useful for checking final entries after writing off old goodwill and adjusting new goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The gainer will bear the burden

The governing principle is that goodwill adjustment must compensate the partner whose goodwill interest is surrendered and charge the partners who gain from the change. After old goodwill is written off and the new adjustment is recorded, the final debit burden should fall on the gaining partner or partners in the gaining ratio. This provides a practical check on the entries: the total debit to gainers should equal the total credit due to the retiring or sacrificing interest, subject to the method used. Option A states this rule. Capital size, seniority, or cash withdrawal does not determine the goodwill burden.
