A, B, C and D share profits in the ratio 3:1:2:4. When D retires, A, B and C take over D’s share in the ratio 1:1:2. What is the simplified new profit-sharing ratio of A, B and C?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2:1:2

The total ratio is 10, so D’s share is 4/10. Distributing this share among A, B and C in the ratio 1:1:2 gives them additional shares of 1/10, 1/10 and 2/10, respectively. Thus, their new shares are A = 4/10, B = 2/10 and C = 4/10. Therefore, the new ratio is 4:2:4, which simplifies to 2:1:2. The ratio 3:1:2 is the old ratio, while 1:1:2 is only the ratio for taking over D’s share. Exam tip: First calculate the retiring partner’s share, then distribute it according to the stated gain ratio.
