Interest on Z’s Capital for 4 years = 12,000 × 4 = Rs 48,000

WN 3 Calculation of Z’s Share of Profit as a Partner

Profit after Interest on Z’s Capital = Profit before Interest on Z’s Capital − Interest on Z’s Capital

ANSWER:
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Working Notes:

WN 1 Calculation of Remuneration to C as a Manager

Salary to C = Rs 50,000

Commission to C = 10% of Net Profit after Salary and Commission

Net Profit after Salary and Commission = 6,44,000 − 50,000 = Rs 5,94,000
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

C’s remuneration as Manager = Salary + Commission = 50,000 + 54,000 = Rs 1,04,000
WN 2 Calculation of Profit Share of C as a Partner
Profit = Rs 6,44,000
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Part of C’s Profit Share to be borne by A = 1,28,800 − 1,04,000 = Rs 24,800

Profit available for distribution between A and B = 6,44,000 − 1,04,000 = Rs 5,40,000
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
A’s Profit share after adjusting C’s deficiency = 3,60,000 − 24,800 = Rs 3,35,200

ANSWER:

Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Working Notes:

Profit for the year = Rs 31,500

Profit sharing ratio = 4 : 2 : 1

C is given a guarantee of minimum profit of Rs 7,500
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
C’s Actual Profit Share (i.e. Rs 4,500) is less than his Minimum Guaranteed Profit (i.e. Rs 7,500)
∴ Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 7,500 − 4,500 = Rs 3,000

This deficiency is to be borne by A and B in their profit sharing ratio i.e. 4 : 2
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Therefore,

Final Profit Share of A = 18,000 − 2,000 = Rs 16,000

Final Profit Share of B = 9,000 − 1,000 = Rs 8,000
Final Profit Share of C = 4,500 + 3,000 = Rs 7,500

ANSWER:
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Note: Since Z is admitted on 1st October, 2018 and Profit is ascertained on March 31, 2019, therefore, interest on capital is calculated for 6 months and guaranteed amount is considered as Rs 40,000 (half of the total amount).

Profit sharing ratio = 2 : 2 : 1

C is given a guarantee of minimum profit of Rs 10,000
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 10,000 − 8,000 = Rs 2,000

This deficiency is to be borne by B.

Therefore,

Final Profit Share of A = 16,000

Final Profit Share of B = 16,000 − 2,000 = Rs 14,000

(c) Guaranteed minimum profit of ₹ 6,000 payable to C is guaranteed by B.
(d) Any deficiency after making payment of guaranteed ₹ 6,000 will be borne by A and B in the ratio of 3 : 1.

ANSWER:

Case (a)
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Working Notes:
Profit = Rs 30,000
Profit sharing ratio = 3 : 2 : 1

C is given a guarantee of minimum profit of Rs 6,000
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 6,000 − 5,000 = Rs 1,000
This deficiency is to be borne by A and B in their profit sharing ratio i.e. 3 : 2
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Therefore,

Final Profit Share of A = 15,000 − 600 = Rs 14,400

Final Profit Share of B = 10,000 − 400 = Rs 9,600

Final Profit Share of C = 5,000 + 1,000 = Rs 6,000

Case (b)
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Working Notes:

Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 6,000 − 5,000 = Rs 1,000

This deficiency is to be borne by A only.

Therefore,

Final Profit Share of A = 15,000 − 1,000 = Rs 14,000

Final Profit Share of B = 10,000

Final Profit Share of C = 5,000 + 1,000 = Rs 6,000

Case (c)
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Working Notes:

Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 6,000 − 5,000 = Rs 1,000

This deficiency is to be borne by B only.

Therefore,

Final Profit Share of A = 15,000

Final Profit Share of B = 10,000 − 1,000 = Rs 9,000

Final Profit Share of C = 5,000 + 1,000 = Rs 6,000

Case (d)
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Working Notes:

Deficiency in C’s Profit Share = 6,000 − 5,000 = Rs 1,000

This deficiency is to be borne by A and B in the ratio of 3 : 1.
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

Therefore,
Final Profit Share of A = 15,000 − 750 = Rs 14,250

Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Dholu’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit = Rs 1,10,000 (excluding interest on capital, but including salary)
Dholu’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit (excluding salary) = 1,10,000 – 40,000 = Rs 70,000
But, Dholu’s Actual Profit Share = Rs 60,000
Deficiency in Dholu’s Profit Share = 70,000 – 60,000 = 10,000
This deficiency is to be borne by Asgar alone.
Therefore,
Asgar’s New Profit Share =  80,000 – 10,000 = Rs 70,000

Question 88: Ankur, Bhavns and Disha are partners in a firm. On 1st April, 2017, the balance in their Capital Accounts stood at ₹ 14,00,000, ₹ 6,00,000 and ₹ 4,00,000 respectively.

Partners are entitled to interest on capital @ 6% per annum and salary to Bhavna @ ₹ 50,000 p.a. and a commission of ₹ 3,000 per month to Disha as per the provisions of the partnership Deed. Bhavna's share of profit (excluding interest on capital) is guaranteed at not less than ₹ 1,70,000 p.a. Disha's share of profit (including interest on capital but excluding commission) is guaranteed at not less than ₹ 1,50,000 p.a. Any deficiency arising on that account shall be met by Ankur.

ANSWER:
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Working Notes:
Profit available for distribution =  9,50,000 – (1,44,000 + 50,000 + 36,000) = Rs 7,20,000
Profit sharing ratio = 7 : 3 : 2 
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Bhavna’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit = Rs 1,70,000 (excluding interest on capital)

But, Bhavna’s Actual Profit Share = Rs 1,80,000
This implies that there is no deficiency in Bhavna’s profit share as her actual profit share
(i.e. Rs 1,80,000) exceeds his minimum guaranteed profit share (i.e. Rs 1,70,000).

 Disha’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit = Rs 1,50,000 (including interest on capital but excluding salary)
Disha’s Minimum Guaranteed Profit (excluding interest) = 1,50,000 – 24,000 = Rs 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 = Rs 4,14,000

(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 preceeding five years when he was carrying on profession alone, which on an average works out at ₹ 25,000.

ANSWER:

Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Working Notes:

Deficiency in revenue guaranteed by B = 25,000 − 16,000 = Rs 9,000

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

= 75,000 + 9,000 = Rs 84,000

Profit sharing ratio = 3 : 2 : 1
Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) | Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce
Therefore, Final Profit Share of A = 42,000 − 600 = Rs 41,400

Final Profit Share of B = 28,000 − 400 = Rs 27,600**

Final Profit Share of C =14,000 + 1,000 = Rs 15,000
** In the book, the final profit to B is given as Rs 18,600, however, as per the solution it should be Rs 27,600. The deficiency of Rs 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.

FAQs on Accounting for Partnership Firms-Fundamentals ( Part - 6) - Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

1. What is the concept of accounting for partnership firms?
Ans. Accounting for partnership firms refers to the process of recording, summarizing, and reporting financial transactions and activities of a partnership business. It involves maintaining proper books of accounts, preparing financial statements, and analyzing the financial performance of the partnership firm.
2. What are the fundamental principles of accounting for partnership firms?
Ans. The fundamental principles of accounting for partnership firms are as follows: 1. Separate Entity Principle: The partnership firm is considered a separate legal entity from its partners, and its financial transactions are recorded separately from the personal transactions of the partners. 2. Going Concern Principle: The partnership firm is assumed to continue its operations for an indefinite period, unless there is a clear indication of its closure. 3. Consistency Principle: The accounting methods and principles used by the partnership firm should remain consistent over time, ensuring comparability of financial information. 4. Cost Principle: Assets are recorded at their original cost and are not adjusted to their current market value unless there is a significant change in value. 5. Accrual Basis Principle: Revenue is recognized when it is earned, and expenses are recognized when they are incurred, regardless of the actual cash inflows or outflows.
3. What are the key financial statements prepared for partnership firms?
Ans. The key financial statements prepared for partnership firms are: 1. Income Statement: It shows the revenue, expenses, and net profit or loss of the partnership firm over a specific period. 2. Balance Sheet: It presents the financial position of the partnership firm at a specific point in time, showing its assets, liabilities, and owner's equity. 3. Statement of Partners' Capital: It records the changes in the partners' capital accounts, including investments, withdrawals, and the allocation of profits or losses. 4. Cash Flow Statement: It provides information about the cash inflows and outflows of the partnership firm during a specific period, categorizing them into operating, investing, and financing activities.
4. How are profits and losses shared among the partners in a partnership firm?
Ans. The sharing of profits and losses among partners in a partnership firm is typically determined based on the partnership agreement. The common methods include: 1. Equal sharing: The partners share the profits and losses equally, regardless of their capital contributions or efforts. 2. Ratio sharing: The profits and losses are distributed among partners in proportion to their agreed-upon profit-sharing ratio, which may be based on their capital investment or any other mutually agreed criteria. 3. Interest on capital and salary: Partners may receive a fixed interest on their capital investment and a salary for their services, with any remaining profits or losses shared based on the agreed ratio. 4. Prior agreement: The partnership agreement may outline specific conditions for profit and loss sharing, such as a priority distribution to a particular partner or a fixed return on investment before sharing the remaining profits.
5. How are partner's capital accounts maintained in a partnership firm?
Ans. Partner's capital accounts in a partnership firm are maintained by recording the initial capital investment, subsequent investments or withdrawals, and the allocation of profits or losses. Each partner has a separate capital account that reflects their share of the partnership's net assets. The capital accounts are updated at the end of each accounting period by adjusting for the partner's share of profits or losses, additional investments, and withdrawals. The closing balance of the capital account represents the partner's capital at the end of the period, which is carried forward to the next accounting period.
