On the death of a partner, the firm's goodwill is valued at ₹54,000. The gaining partners gain in the ratio 4:2:3. What amount will be debited to the capital account of the second gaining partner for the adjustment of goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹12,000

The second gaining partner's share in the gaining ratio is 2/9. Therefore, the amount debited to the partner's capital account is ₹54,000 × 2/9 = ₹12,000. ₹18,000 would correspond to the third partner's 3/9 share, not the second partner's share. Exam tip: Divide each partner's gain-ratio component by the total ratio before applying it to goodwill.
