Question 12:
A, B and C
are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 3 :
2 : 1. B died on 30th June, 2022. For the year ended 31st March,
2023, proportionate profit of 2022 is to be taken into consideration. During
the year ended 31st March, 2023, bad debts of ` 2,000 had to be adjusted.
Profit for the year ended 31st March, 2022 was `14,000 before adjustment of
bad debts. Calculate B's share of profit till the date of his death.
Answer:
Profit for the year 2022-23 before adjusting bad debts = ` 14,000
Bad debts = `
2,000
Profits after adjusting bad debts
=14,000 – 2,000= `12,000
Proportionate profit of the firm (from April 01, 2022 to June 30, 2022)
=12,000×3/12=3,000
B’s share of profit (from April 01, 2022 to June 30, 2022)
=3,000×2/6=1,000
Question 13: Ram, Manu and Hari were partners in a firm. Hari died on 30th June, 2023. His share of profit from the closure of the last accounting year till the date of death was to be calculated on the basis of the average of three completed financial years of profits before death. Profits for the years ended 31st March, 2021, 2022 and 2023 were ` 1,10,000; ` 1,20,000 and ` 1,30,000 respectively. Calculate Hari’s share of profit till the date of his death and pass necessary Journal entry for the same.
Answer:
Total profit previous three years = 1,10,000 + 1,20,000 + 1,30,000 = 3,60,000
Average Profit previous three years = 3,60,000/3 = 1,20,000
Hari died on 30th June, 2023 after 3 month of beginning of the year (from 1 April 2021 to 30th June, 2022)
Hari’s share of Profit for 3 month = 1,20,000 × 3 × 1 ÷ 12 × 3 = ` 10,000
