Goodwill appearing in the old books is ₹1,20,000. A, B and C share profits in the old ratio of 4 : 3 : 5. When the goodwill is written off, by how much will C’s Capital Account be debited?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹50,000

When existing goodwill is written off, the partners’ Capital Accounts are debited in the old profit-sharing ratio. C’s share is \(5/(4+3+5)=5/12\). Thus, C’s Capital Account will be debited by \(₹1,20,000 \times 5/12 = ₹50,000\). Exam tip: use the old ratio for writing off existing goodwill; using the new ratio would make options such as ₹40,000 incorrect.
