A, B and C share profits in the ratio 3:5:2. B retires, and A and C acquire B’s share in the ratio 4:1. What will be the new profit-sharing ratio of A and C?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 7:3

Assume the total profit is divided into 10 parts. A’s original share is 3/10 and C’s is 2/10. B’s share of 5/10 is acquired by A and C in the ratio 4:1, so A receives 4/10 and C receives 1/10. Therefore, A’s new share is 3/10 + 4/10 = 7/10, while C’s new share is 2/10 + 1/10 = 3/10. Hence, the new ratio is 7:3. Exam tip: Divide the retiring partner’s share according to the acquisition ratio and add the resulting portions to the partners’ original shares. The ratio 4:1 is only the acquisition ratio, not the final profit-sharing ratio.
