Working Notes:
WN1: Calculation of Z’s Share of Profit
Z's share=Firm's Average Profit×Z's Profit Share×Period for which Z remained in the business
Average Profits=Total Profits
Number of Years=18,000+19,000+17,000/3=54,000/3=` 18,000
Z's share=18,000×13×2/12=1,000 to be borne by gaining partners in gaining ratio in case b
WN2: Calculation of Gaining
Ratio
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio
X's gain=3/5−1/3=415
Y's gain=2/5−1/3=115
Gaining Ratio=4:1
X's share=18,000×4/5=800
Y's share=18,000×1/5=200
