Answer:

Calculation of Share of profits

P's Share -3,50,000*5/10 = 1,75,000

Q's share - 3,50,000*4/10 = 1,40,000

R's share - 3,50,000*1/10 = 35,000

R's guaranteed share is 50,000. So,the deficiency of 15,000 (50,000-35,000) is to be contributed by P and Q in the ratio of 3:2

P's contribution = 15,000*3/5=9,000

Q's contribution= 15,000*2/5 =6000

Journal entry is as follows:-

P's capital A/c Dr 9,000

Q's capital A/c Dr 6,000

To R's capital A/c 15,000

Answer:

P:Q:R= 5:3:2

S brings 30,000 as capital

S=1/5 acquired equally from all partner

Goodwill valued at 3 year's of purchase

Total Profits =32,000+38,000+35,000+31,000=1,36,000

Average profit= total profit/ total number of years

= 1,36,000/4 = 34,000

Goodwill= Average profit× number of year's of

purchase

= 34,000×3 = 1,02,000

S' share of goodwill= 1,02,000×1/5= 20400

S's current a/c Dr. 20,400

To P's capital a/c. 6,800

To Q's capital a/c. 6,800

To R's capital a/c. 6,800
