A, B and C share profits in the ratio 8:7:3. B dies, and A and C acquire B’s share in the ratio 5:2. What will be the new profit-sharing ratio of A and C?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 13:5

The old total ratio is 8+7+3=18, so B’s share is 7/18. A and C acquire this share in the ratio 5:2; therefore, A receives 5/18 and C receives 2/18. Their new shares are A = 8/18+5/18=13/18 and C = 3/18+2/18=5/18. Hence, the new ratio is 13:5. Exam tip: apply the acquisition ratio only to the outgoing partner’s share, not to the entire profit.
