Working notes

1. share surrendered by A: 1/5th of 3/5 =3/25

Share surrendered by B : 2/5th of 2/5 = 4/25

Sacrificing ratio 3/25 : 4/25 = 3 : 4

A’s new share = 3/5 – 3/25 = 15-3/25 =12/25

B’s new share = 2/5 – 4/25 = 10-4/ 25 = 6/25

C’s share = 3/25 +4/25 = 7/25

hence., new ratios of A, B and C = 12 : 6 : 7

2. adjusted capital of A = Rs. 3,20,000 + share of goodwill Rs. 60,000 = Rs. 3,80,000adjusted capital of B = Rs. 2,60,000 + share of goodwill Rs. 80,000 = Rs. 3,40,000Total adjusted capital of A and B for 18/25th share = Rs. 3,80,000 + Rs. 3,40,000

= Rs. 7,20,000total capital of new firm : Rs. 7,20,000 × 25/18 = Rs. 10,00,000Proportionate capital of C = Rs. 10,00,000 × 7/25 = Rs. 2,80,000

3. interest on capitals : A 5% on Rs. 3,80,000 = Rs. 19,000B 5% on Rs. 3,40,000 = Rs. 17,000C 5% on Rs. 2,80,000 = Rs. 14,000
