Working Notes:

WN 1 Calculation of Interest on Capital

Interest on A’s capital=50,000×6/100=3000

Interest on B’s capital=30,000×6/100=1,800

WN 2 Calculation of Commission to Partners

A’s commission = 2% on turnover

=3,00,000×2/100=6,000

Commission to B = 5% on Profits after all Expense including such Commission

Profits after all expense = 50,000 -` 4,800 -` 6,000 -` 6,000 = ` 33,200

B’s commission= Profit after all expenses×Rate of commission/100+Rate

33.200×5/105=1,581 (approx.)

WN 3 Calculation of Profit Share of each Partner

Profit available for Distribution = 50,000 -` 4,800- ` 6,000 -`7,581 = ` 31,619

Profit sharing ratio = 3 : 1

A’s profit share= 31,619×3/4=23,716

B’s profit share= 31,619×1/4=7,905

 

A, B and C were partners in a firm having capitals of  ` 50,000 ;  ` 50,000 and  ` 1,00,000 respectively. Their Current Account balances were A:  ` 10,000; B:  ` 5,000 and C:  ` 2,000 (Dr.). According to the Partnership Deed the partners were entitled to an interest on Capital @ 10% p.a. C being the working partner was also entitled to a salary of  ` 12,000 p.a. The profits were to be  divided as:
(a) The first  ` 20,000 in proportion to their capitals.
(b) Next  ` 30,000 in the ratio of 5 : 3 : 2.
(c) Remaining profits to be shared equally.
The firm earned net profit of  ` 1,72,000 before charging any of the above items.
Prepare Profit and Loss Appropriation Account and pass necessary Journal entry for the appropriation of profits.

Working Notes:

WN 1 Calculation of Interest on Capital

Interest on A’s capital=50,000×10/100=5,000

Interest on B’s capital=50,000×10/100=5,000

Interest on C’s capital=1,00,000×10/100=10,000

 

WN 2 Calculation of Profit Share of each Partner

Profits available for Distribution = 1,72,000 -` 20,000- ` 12,000 = ` 1,40,000

1. Distribution of first ` 20,000 in the Capital Ratio i.e. 1:1:2

A’s profit share=20,000×1/4=5,000

B’s profit share=20,000×1/4=5,000

C’s profit share=20,000×2/4=10,000

2. Distribution of Next ` 30,000 in the ratio of 5:3:2

A’s profit share=30,000×5/10=15,000

B’s profit share=30,000×3/10=9,000

C’s profit share=30,000×2/10=6,000

3. Remaining Profit available for distribution = ` 1,40,000 -` 20,000 -` 30,000 = ` 90,000

This profit of ` 90,000 is to be shared equally by the partners.

Profir Share of  A,B,C each =90,000 ×1/3=30,000

Therefore,

Total Profit Share of A = 5,000 + 15,000 + 30,000 = ` 50,000

Total Profit Share of B = 5,000 + 9,000 + 30,000 = ` 44,000

Total Profit Share of C = 10,000 + 6,000 + 30,000 = ` 46,000

 

Amit, Binita and Charu are three partners. On 1st April, 2021, their Capitals stood as: Amit  ` 1,00,000, Binita  ` 2,00,000 and Charu  ` 3,00,000. It was decided that:
