  • Question 8

D contributes a goodwill of $$Rs.36,000$$. This goodwill is to be allocated among A, B and C. Which one of the following will be the correct allocation?
    Solution
    At the time of admission of a new partner, existing partners suffer a loss in terms of share of profit and due to this reason incoming partner has to bring amount of capital and goodwill to compensate sacrificing partners in their sacrificing ratio.
    Calculation of sacrificing ratio of old partners for the given question : 
    Sacrificing ratio = Old ratio - New ratio
    A's sacrifice = (4/9) - (5/12) = 1/36 
    B's sacrifice = (3/9) - (4/12) = 0
    C's sacrifice = (2/9) - (2/12) = 2/36
    Allocation of goodwill among sacrificing partner (A and C) will be in ratio of 1:2
    A's share of goodwill = Rs. 36000 * (1/3) = Rs. 12000
    B's share of goodwill = Rs. 36000 * (2/3) = Rs. 24000

If incoming partner brings any premium over and above his capital contribution at the time of his admission, such premium should be distributed to other existing partners. When a new partner is admitted to a firm, the old partner generally sacrifice in favour of the new partner in terms of lower profit sharing ratio in the future. Therefore, the premium for goodwill brought in by the new partner shall be given to the existing partners on the basis of profit sacrificing ratio.

    Solution
