Ch-4 Admission of a Partner

---

Answer

1. 1. No entry will be passed, Explanation: No need to pass any journal entry when a new partner pays his premium for goodwill amount privately to the sacrificing partners, it will not be recorded in the books of accounts.
   2. Cash/Bank A/c, Explanation: When a new partner is admitted and he brings his share of goodwill (premium for goodwill) in cash, in such a case Cash or Bank account should be debited and Premium for goodwill account should be credited.
   2. Balance sheet, Explanation: The goodwill already existing in the balance sheet of the old firm should be written off and transferred to the old partners capital account in the old ratio.
   2. Old partner’s Capital A/c, Explanation: At the time of admission of a new partner, all accumulated profits and losses should be distributed among the old partners in their old profit sharing ratio. Accumulated losses given in the assets side of the balance sheet should also be written off to he old partners in the old ratio. Hence the old partners capital accounts are to be debited to write off the accumulated losses in the balance sheet.
   1. Not to be distributed, Explanation: Employee provident fund is not a free reserve.It is not an accumulated profit. Partners cannot distribute it among themselves. This is outsiders’ liability which has to be paid to the employees after sometime. It will be shown in the new balance sheet of the firm (if not paid).
2. B’s Sacrifice = Old Share – New Share
   = 38−28=1838−28=18we can say, 13 13 rd of B’s share
3. When the new partner is unable to bring premium of goodwill in cash. In such a situation, New Partner’s Capital Account will be debited with his share of goodwill and sacrificing Partners’ Capital Accounts will be credited with their respective shares. In case of Fixed Capital Accounts, new partners Current Accounts will be debited and sacrificing partners current a/c will be credited.

   	(Being the goodwill distributed between A and B in their sacrificing ratio i.e., 9 : 1, see W.N.1)

   Working Note:-

   Calculating sacrificing Ratio

   Sacrificing Share = Old Share – New Share

   A = 35−38=24−1540=94035−38=24−1540=940

   B = 25−38=16−1540=14025−38=16−1540=140

6. When a new partner is admitted in the firm, he has to be given a share in the profit of the firm. This part of the profit has to be compensated by the old partners. Hence their part of share in profit gets reduced. The reduced part of the profit-sharing ratio of the old partners is known as Sacrificing Ratio. It is important to ascertain the sacrificing ratio because of the reason that the new partner will have a share in an existing firm for which he compensates by paying goodwill to the sacrificing partner or partners in the sacrificing ratio.

   Working Note:
   Calculation of Adjusted Profit

   Year	Profit	Adjustments		Adjusted Profit
   2013 – 14	3,50,000	– 56,250	=	2,93,750
   2014 – 15	4,75,000	– 56,250	=	4,18,750
   2015 – 16	6,70,000	– 56,250	=	6,13,750
   2016 – 17	7,45,000	– 56,250 – 15,000	=	6,73,750
   Total				20,00,000

   Average Adjusted profit = 20,00,000420,00,0004 = Rs. 5,00,000
   Goodwill = Average profit × Number of years’ purchase
   = 5,00,000 × 2 = Rs. 10,00,000
   Raghav’s share of goodwill = 10,00,000 × 1414 = Rs. 2,50,000 to be shared by Asha and Aditi in 3 : 2 ratio.

   	To Y’s Capital A/c				9,000
   	(Being the premium for goodwill brought in by Z transferred to the Capital Accounts of X and Y in their sacrificing ratio, which is 4 : 3)

10. Working Notes:
    1. total Goodwill = 90,000
       D’s share = 90,000 ×× 1/6 = 15,000
       Calculation Of Gain Or Sacrifice
       Sacrifice = Old Share – New Share
       A’s Sacrifice = 3/6 – 2/6 = 1/6
       B’s Sacrifice = 2/6 – 2/6 = 0
       C’s Sacrifice = 1/6 – 1/6 = 0
       So Cash Brought By D for Goodwill Will Be Credited To A’s Account only.
    2. Calculation of D’s Capital
       Adjusted Capital Of A = 81,000
       Adjusted Capital Of B = 44,000
       Adjusted Capital Of C = 22,000
       Total Adjusted Capital = 1,47,000
       Combined Share Of A, B, C = 1 – 1/6 = 5/6
       So D’s Share In Capital = 1,47,000 ×× 6/5 ×× 1/6 = 29,400
