Answer:
The ratio of profit share of A & B = 3 : 2
At the year-end, firm earned a profit of = Rs. 54,000
C’s was admitted for a share of profit = 1/6th
So, C’s profit share as per the profit-sharing ratio = (1/6) * 54,000 = Rs. 9000
But, a minimum guaranteed amount was agreed by A & B to be adjusted with C that was Rs. 10000, therefore,
C’s final profit share will be = Rs. 10,000
Now,
The balanced profit that A & B will share in the ratio of 3 : 2 = Rs. 54000 – Rs. 10000 = Rs. 44,000.
Thus,
The final profit share at the end of the year for A, B & C will be as follows:
A’s share = (2/5) * 44000 = Rs. 17,600
B’s share = (3/5) * 44000 = Rs. 26,400
C’s share = Rs. 10,000
