Goodwill appearing in the books is ₹1,54,000, and the partners’ old ratio is 3:4:4. When the goodwill is written off from the books, how much will be debited to B’s account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹56,000

When old goodwill is written off, its book value is debited to the partners’ capital or current accounts in their old ratio. B’s share is \(\frac{4}{3+4+4}=\frac{4}{11}\). Hence, the amount debited to B’s account is \(₹1,54,000 \times \frac{4}{11}=₹56,000\). ₹48,000 results from applying an incorrect fraction instead of 4/11. Exam tip: Identify whether the adjustment uses the old ratio or the new ratio before calculating the partner’s share.
