[Bharathiar, B.Com. April 2000)
Ans: New profit sharing ratio : 25: 15:24
Sacrificing ratio : 5:31​

Answer 1

Answer:

let be the total profit firm=1

saravanan remainder= 1-3÷8

new profit ratio= 5:3

thangam=5/8×5/8=25/64

nathan=5/8×3/8=15/64

saravanan=3/8×8/8=24/64

new profit sharing ratio=25:15:24

sacrificing ratio = old ratio- new ratio

thangam = 5/8×25/64=15/64

nathan=3/8×15/64=9/64

sacrificing ratio = 15:9 divided by 3 table=5:3
