Answers
Given : Singh, Gupta and Khan are partners in a firm sharing profits in 3:2:3 ratio. They admitted Jain as a new partner.
Singh surrendered 1/3 of his share in favour of Jain: Gupta surrendered 1/4 of his share in favour of Jain and Khan surrendered 1/5 in favour of Jain.
Solution :
Old ratio of old partners : Singh , Gupta and Khan = 3 : 2 : 3
Singh surrenders = ⅓ of ⅜ = 3/24
Singh's New Share = ⅜ - 3/24 = (9 - 3)/24 = 6/24
Gupta surrenders = ¼ of 2/8 = 2/32
Gupta's New Share = 2/8 - 2/32 = (8 - 2)/32 = 6/32
Khan surrenders = ⅕ of 3/8 = 3/40
Khan's New Share = 3/8 - 3/40 = (15 - 3)/40 = 12/40
Jain's share = 3/24 + 2/32 + 3/40 = ⅛ + 1/16 + 3/40 = (10 + 5 +6)/80 = 21/80
New profit shares = 6/24 : 6/32 : 12/40 : 21/80 = ¼ : 3/16 : 3/10 : 21/80
= 20/80 : 15/80 : 24/80 : 21/80
New profit sharing ratio = 20 : 15 : 24 : 21
Hence the New profit sharing ratio is 20 : 15 : 24 : 21.
