Rajesh's sacrifice = Old Profit Share - New Profit Share = 3/5 - 1/2 = 1/10

Mahesh's gain = New Profit Share - Old Profit Share = 1/2 - 2/5 = 1/10

 

2. Valued Goodwill adjusted

Share in Goodwill = 36,000×1/10=3,600

 

3. For Appreciation in Value of Building: 90,000-72,000=18,000

Share = 18,000×1/10=1,800

Working Notes:

WN 1Calculation of Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio

Old Ratio (X and Y) = 5 : 3

New Ratio (X and Y) = 3 : 5

Sacrificing (or Gaining) Ratio = Old Ratio − New Ratio

X's share=5/8−3/8=2/8 (Sacrifice)

Y's share=3/8−5/8=−2/8 (Gain)

 

WN 2Calculation of New Goodwill

Goodwill = Average Profit × Number of Year′s Purchase = 6,000 × 2 = ₹ 12,000

Average profit= 7,500+4,000+6,500/3=6,000

∴Goodwill = 6,000 × 2 = ₹ 12,000

WN 3Adjustment of Goodwill

Amount to be debited to X’s capital=12,000×2/8 =3,000
