Working Notes:
1. Valuation of Goodwill and B's share of Goodwill:
Average Profit `=(RS.20,000+RS.14.000+RS.17,000+RS.15,000)/(4)=RS.16,500`
Value of Goodwill = Average Profit xxNo.of years' Purchase
`=RS.16,500xx(5)/(2)=RS.41,250`
B's share in Goodwill `RS.41.250xx(4)//(15)=RS.11,000`
2.Calculation of New Profit-Sharing Ratio:
Let total Profit=1
B's share = 4/15th share
Remaining Profit =1-4/15=11/15
W's share `=11//15xx2//5=22//75`
R's `=11/15xx2//5=22//75` Thus New Profit-sharing Ratio of W, R and B =33/75 : 22/75 : 4/75 : or 33 : 22 : 20.
3. Adjustment of Capital:
For 4/15th share, B brought capital =RS.30,000 Therefore , total capital of the firm `RS.30,000xx15//4=RS.1,12,500` Thus, W,s Capital `RS.1,12,500xx33//75=RS.49,500,`
R's Capital `=RS.1,12,500xx22//75=RS.33,0000,` and
B's Capital `=RS.1,12,500xx20//75=RS.30,000.`
