Q.6. A, B and C are partners sharing profits in 3:2:2 ratio. They admitted D as a new partner for 1/5
Q.6. A, B and C are partners sharing profits in 3:2:2 ratio. They admitted D as a new partner for 1/5 share which he acquired from A, B and C in 2:2:1 ratio respectively. Calculate new profit sharing ratio?
A, B and C are partners sharing profits in ratio = 3:2:2
New Partner D’s share = 1/5 which he takes 1/5 in the ratio of 2:2:1 from A,B,C
A’s sacrifice = D’s share X 2/5
=1/5 X 2/5
=2/25
B’s sacrifice = D’s share X 2/5
= 1/5 X 2/5
=2/25
C’s sacrifice = D’s share X 1/5
=1/5 X 1/5
=1/25
New ratio = Old ratio – Sacrifice ratio
A = 3/7 – 2/25
= 61/175
B =2/7 – 2/25
=36/175
C =2/7 – 1/25
=43/175
D=1/5 X35
New Ratio = 61:36:43:35
