Profit and Loss Appropriation Account for the year ended March 31, 2022
Dr.				Cr.
Particulars		`	Particulars	`
Interest on Capital to:			Profit and Loss A/c	9,50,000
Ankur’s Capital A/c	84,000		(Net Profit)
Bhavna’s Capital A/c	36,000
Disha’s Capital A/c	24,000	1,44,000
Salary to Bhavna		50,000
Commission to Disha (` 3,000 × 12)		36,000
Profit transferred to:
Ankur’s Capital A/c	4,14,000
Bhavna’s Capital A/c	1,80,000
Disha’s Capital A/c	1,26,000	7,20,000
		9,50,000		9,50,000

Working Notes:

Profit available for distribution =  9,50,000 – (1,44,000 + 50,000 + 36,000) = ` 7,20,000
Profit sharing ratio = 7 : 3 : 2

Ankur’s profit share = 7,20,000×7/12=4,20,000

Bhavna’s profit share = 7,20,000×3/12=1,80,000

Disha’s profit share = 7,20,000×1/12=1,20,000

Bhavna’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit = ` 1,70,000 (excluding interest on capital)
But, Bhavna’s Actual Profit Share = ` 1,80,000
This implies that there is no deficiency in Bhavna’s profit share as her actual profit share (i.e. ` 1,80,000) exceeds his minimum guaranteed profit share (i.e. ` 1,70,000).
 
Disha’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit = ` 1,50,000 (including interest on capital but excluding salary)
Disha’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit (excluding interest) = 1,50,000 – 24,000 = ` 1,26,000
But, Disha’s Actual Profit Share = 1,20,000
Deficiency in Disha’s Profit Share = 1,26,000 – 1,20,000 = 6,000
This deficiency is to be borne by Ankur alone.
Therefore,
Ankur’s New Profit Share =  4,20,000 – 6,000 = ` 4,14,000

 

Three Chartered Accountants A, B and C form a partnership, profits being shared in the ratio of 3 : 2 : 1 subject to the following:
(a) C's share of profit guaranteed to be not less than  ` 15,000 p.a.
(b) B gives a guarantee to the effect that gross fee earned by him for the firm shall be equal to his average gross fee of the preceding five years when he was carrying on profession alone, which on an average works out at  ` 25,000.
The profit for the first year of the partnership are  `75,000. The gross fee earned by B for the firm is  `16,000. You are required to show Profit and Loss Appropriation Account after giving effect to the above.

Profit and Loss Appropriation Account
Dr.				Cr.
Particulars		`	Particulars	`
Profit transferred to:			Profit and Loss A/c (Net Profit)	75,000
A’s Capital A/c	41,400		B’s Capital A/c
B’s Capital A/c	27,600		(Deficiency in Revenue)	9,000
C’s Capital A/c	15,000	84,000
		84,000		84,000

Working Notes:

Deficiency in revenue guaranteed by B = 25,000 -` 16,000 = `9,000

∴Profit to be distributed among Partners = 75,000 + B’s deficiency in guaranteed interest

= 75,000 + 9,000 = `84,000

Profit sharing ratio = 3 : 2 : 1

A’s profit share=84,000×3/6=42,000

B’s profit share=84,000×2/6=28,000

C’s profit share=84,000×1/6=14,000

C is given a guarantee of minimum profit of  `15,000

Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 15,000 - ` 14,000 = `1,000

Deficiency is to be borne by A= 1000×3/5=600

Deficiency is to be borne by b= 1000×2/5=400

Therefore, Final Profit Share of A = 42,000 - 600 = `41,400

Final Profit Share of B = 28,000 - 400 = `27,600*

Final Profit Share of C =14,000 + 1,000 = `15,000

* In the book, the final profit to B is given as `18,600, however, as per the solution it should be `27,600. The deficiency of  `9,000 that was guaranteed by B to the firm would not be deducted from his share as he is bearing it in form of profit.
