The existing goodwill is ₹1,50,000, and the old profit-sharing ratio of the three partners is 2:3:5. When the existing goodwill is written off, by what amount will the second partner’s capital account be debited?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹45,000

When existing goodwill is written off, the capital accounts of all partners are debited in the old profit-sharing ratio. The second partner’s share is \(\frac{3}{2+3+5}=\frac{3}{10}\). Therefore, the amount debited is ₹1,50,000 × \(\frac{3}{10}\) = ₹45,000. ₹60,000 represents the third partner’s share of 5/10, so it is not correct. Exam tip: On writing off existing goodwill, debit the partners in their old ratio.
