Solution:-
Calculation of Sacrifice/gain of partners
Old Ratio = 5 : 4 : 1
New Ratio = 1 : 1 : 1
P = 5/10 – 1/3 = 15 – 10/30 = 5/30
Q = 4/10 – 1/3 = 12 – 10 = 2/30
R = 1/10 – 1/3 = 3 – 10/30 = – 7/30
Final Accumulated Profit = General Reserve – Profit & Loss (Dr)
Final Accumulated Profit = ₹ 80,000 – ₹ 20,000 = ₹ 60,000
P’s share = 60,000 × 5/30 = ₹ 10,000 (Credit)
Q’s share = 60,000 × 2/30 = ₹ 4,000 (Credit)
R’s share = 60,000 × 7/30 = ₹ 14,000 (Debit)
Journal Entry:-
R’s Capital A/c Dr. 14,000
To P’s Capital A/c 10,000
To Q’s Capital A/c 4,000
