A, B and C share profits in the ratio 3:7:5. C retires, and the new profit-sharing ratio of A and B becomes 5:3. Who will bear the goodwill compensation payable to C?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A only

Under the old ratio, A’s share was \(3/15=1/5\), which rises to \(5/8\) under the new ratio. Thus, A gains \(5/8-1/5=17/40\). B’s share falls from \(7/15\) to \(3/8\), so B is a sacrificing partner rather than a gaining partner. Therefore, only A bears the goodwill compensation payable to C. Exam tip: In retirement questions, compare each continuing partner’s new share with the old share to identify the gaining partner(s).
