A, B, C and D share profits in the ratio 3:2:1:4. C retires, and A, B and D acquire C’s share in the ratio 2:1:1. What will be the new ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 14:9:17

The governing principle is that the retiring partner’s old share is distributed among the continuing partners in the stated acquisition ratio, and each gain is added to the corresponding old share. The old total is 3+2+1+4=10, so C’s share is 1/10. The acquisition ratio 2:1:1 has four parts. A receives 2/4 of 1/10 = 1/20, while B and D each receive 1/40. Thus A’s new share is 3/10+1/20=14/40; B’s is 2/10+1/40=9/40; and D’s is 4/10+1/40=17/40. Hence the new ratio is 14:9:17, making option A correct. The sum is 40/40, confirming the result.
