Ans – d)
Solution:-
Amay’s share in General Reserve = 7,500 × 1/3 = ₹ 2,500
Amay’s share in Goodwill = 30,000 × 1/3 = ₹ 10,000
Amay’s share in gain on revaluation = 24,000 × 1/3 = ₹ 8,000
The amount to be paid to Amay on his retirement:-
Opening Capital + Share in general Reserve + share in goodwill + share on revaluation gain
50,000 + 2,500 + 10,000 + 8,000 = ₹ 70,500
