A and B are partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 2 : 1. They admit C as a new partner for 1/5 share. New Ratio will be 3 : 1 : 1. Sacrificing ratio will be:
Calculation of sacrificing ratio of partners:
Old Ratio = 2:1
New Ratio = 3:1:1
Sacrificing Ratio = A : 2/3 – 3/5 = 1/15
B : 1/3 – 1/5 = 2/15
REPORT ERROR

Being Chander brought Rs 20000 for his share of goodwill. Which amount should be debited:
A, a contractor, appointed B to manage his entire work. It was agreed that B would receive 50% of the profits as his remuneration and would bear all the losses, if any. Here, B is
The Balance Sheet shows land and building Rs. 90,300. But after the change in agreement land and building be brought up to Rs.1, 19,700. By what amount land and building account should be recorded in revaluation account
The correct answer is B.
Land and building is an asset. Revaluation account considers only the changes in assets and liabilities. So since land and building was ₹90300 earlier and now it is to be brought up to ₹119700. This means the value of land and building is increased. So revaluation will consider only the increased amount and not the whole value of building . So increased amount is 119700-90300=₹29400
A and B are partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 2 : 1. They admit C as a new partner for 1/5 share. New Ratio of A and B will be 1 : 2. Sacrificing ratio will be:
Calculation of sacrificing ratio of partners:
Old Ratio = 2:1
New Ratio of A and B = 1:2
New Ratio of A, B and C will be : 1 – 1/5 = 4/5
A’s new share = 1/3 × 4/5 = 4/15
B’s new share = 2/3 × 4/5 = 8/15
C’s Share 1/5 OR 3/15
New Ratio 4 : 8: 3
Sacrificing Ratio = A : 2/3 – 4/15= 6/15
B : 1/3 – 8/15 = 3/15 Gain
