1. Partner's Current Account balances appearing in the Balance Sheet, means that the Capital Accounts are fixed. Hence, all transactions relating to partners are passed throungh the Current Accounts. 2. Existing value of goodwill is written off among the old partners in their old ratio.
3. Value of Firm's Goodwill `=((RS.1,50,000+RS.1,30,000+RS.1,25,000)/(3))xx2=RS.2,70,000`
C's share in Goodwill `=RS.2,70,000xx2//9=RS.60,000`.
4. Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio (Sacrifice=Old Share-New Share):
A's Sacrifice `=(3)/(5)-(4)/(9)=(27-20)/(45)=(7)/(45)" B's Sacrifice"=(2)/(5)-(3)/(9)=(18-15)/(45)=(3)/(45)`
Thus, Sacrificing Ratio of A and B `=(7)/(45):(3)/(45)or 7:3`.
5. Cash at Bank = RS.25,000 (Opeing Balance)+ RS.1,00,000 (C's Capital)+RS.60,000 (C's Share of Goodwill)
-RS.21,000-RS9,000=RS1,55,000.
