Working notes:
W.N. – 1 ((i) The profit-sharing ratio between Amrit and Charu does not change)
Profit sharing ratio of Amrit, Bhanu and Charu was 1:1:1
Profit for the year ended 31st March, 2025, was ₹ 3,60,000
Bhanu's share of profit=3,60,000×1×6/3×12=60,000

A= 1/3-3/5=5-9/15= -4/15 (Gain)
B= 1/3-2/5=5-6/15= -1/15 (Gain)
Share of A and B in 4:1
A= 60,000×4/5=48,000
A= 60,000×1/5=12,000

W.N. – 1 (Calculation of Share of Profit)
The profits for the three preceding completed years were: I- ₹45,000, II- ₹30,000 and III- ₹24,000.
Average Profit= 45,000+30,000+24,000/3= 33,000
Share of Chetan’s Profit= 33,000×1×6/3×12=5,500
W.N. – 1 (Calculation of Share of Goodwill)
Average Profit= 45,000+30,000+24,000/3= 33,000
Firm’s Goodwill= 33,000×1.5=49,500
Chetan’s Share of Goodwill=49,500×1/3=16,500
Chetan will be compensated by Amar and Bharat in 1:1
Amar and Bharat = 16,500×1/2=8,250
