Question

A and B are the partners sharing Profit / losses in ratio 3:2. C is admitted into partnership as a new partner.A sacrifices 1/3 of his share and B sacrifices 1/4of his share in favour of C. what will be the C's share in the firm:

(B) 3/10

(A) 1/5

(C) 2/10

(D) None of the above​

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is

C

5:3:2

Old ratio (A and B) = 3 : 2

C is admitted for 1/5 th share

A's sacrifice in favour of C = (1/5) * (1/2) = (1/10)

B's sacrifice in favour of C = (1/5) * (1/2) = (1/10)

New ratio = Old ratio - Sacrificing ratio

A's new ratio = (3/5) - (1/10) = 5/10 or 1/5

B's new share = (2/5) - (1/10) = 3/10

C's share = A's sacrifice + B's sacrifice

= (1/10) + (1/10)

= 2/10

Therefore, new profit sharing ratio of A, B and C is 5 : 3 : 2
