Calculation of New Profit Sharing Ratio and gaining ratio: 
C’s Share of Profit = 1/5 = 2/10 
Remaining Share = 1 – 1/5 = 4/5 
A’s Share = 5/8 x 4/5 = 20/40 = 5/10 
B’s Share = 3/8 x 4/5 = 12/40 = 3/10 
New Profit sharing Ratio = 5:3:2 
Gaining ratio = 5:3 (same as old profit sharing ratio among old partners)
