Working Note:

1. Calculation of sacrificing ratio:

A's sacrifice= 1/24

B's sacrifice= 1/8

Hence, Sacrificing ratio= 1:3

2. Distribution of premium for goodwill in sacrificing ratio:

A's share= 3600 * 1/4= 900

B's share= 3600 * 3/4= 2700

3. Calculation of new Profit sharing ratio:

A's new share= 7/12- 1/24= 13/24

B's new share= 5/12- 1/8= 7/24

C's share= 1/4

New profit sharing ratio= 13:7:4

4. Distribution of profit in new profit sharing ratio:

A's share= 24000 * 13/24= 13000

B's share= 24000 * 7/24= 7000

C's share= 24000 * 4/24= 4000
