A's Share = \frac{4}{7}-\frac{2}{3} =-  \frac{2}{21}

B's Share = \frac{3}{7} - \frac{1}{3}  =  \frac{2}{21}

Explanation:

Calculation of sacrificing Ratio

Old Ratio (A and B) =4:3

New Ratio  (A and B)= 2: 1

Sacrificing Ratio =Old ratio - New ratio

A's Share = \frac{4}{7}-\frac{2}{3} =-  \frac{2}{21}

B's Share = \frac{3}{7} - \frac{1}{3}  =  \frac{2}{21}

Adjustment of general purpose

A's Capital A/c = 42,000 ×\frac{2}{21} = 4,000(Dr)

B's Capital  A/c= 42,000 × \frac{2}{21} = 4,000(Cr)
