Answer:
Explanation:
14. On admission of a new partner, the firm stands reconstituted and consequently the assets are revalued and liabilities are reassessed. It is necessary to show the true position of the firm at the time of admission of a new partner. If the values of the assets are raised, gain will increase the capital of the existing partners. Similarly, any decrease in the value of assets, i.e. loss will decrease the capital of the existing partners. For this purpose a‘Revaluation Account’ is prepared. This account is credited with all increases in the value of assets and decrease in the value of liabilities. It is debited with decrease on account of value of assets and increase in the value of liabilities. The balance of this account shows a gain or loss on revaluation which is transferred to the existing partner’s capital account in existing profit sharing ratio
