A, B and C share profits in the old ratio of 1 : 3 : 2. When A retires, the new profit-sharing ratio of B and C becomes 7 : 5. In what ratio will B and C bear the compensation for A’s goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 1 : 1

Before A’s retirement, B’s share is 3/6 = 6/12, which becomes 7/12; hence B gains 1/12. C’s old share is 2/6 = 4/12, which becomes 5/12; hence C also gains 1/12. Since both continuing partners gain equally, the goodwill burden-sharing ratio is 1 : 1. Exam tip: Compensation for a retiring partner’s goodwill is borne by the continuing partners in their gaining ratio, not in their new profit-sharing ratio.
