Question

Xena and yana are partners in a firm. Zesha is admitted as a new partner and the new profit sharing ratio between the three partners is decided 1:2:2.The sacrificing ratio between xena and yana is 4:1.calculate the old profit sharing ratio

Answer 1

Answer:

Old ratio = 1:1

Explanation:

New ratio = 1:2:2

Sacrificing ratio = 4:1

So, Xena's old share = 1/5 + 4/5 = 1/1

Yana's old share = 2/5 + 1/5 = 1/1

Therefore sacrificing ratio = 1:1

Answer 2

Answer:

See the sum new psr is 1:2:2

Zeesha admitted as new partner her share 2/5

As we know how much old partner sacrifice that much will taken by new partner

So as per sum sacrifice ratio is 4:1

And new partner zeesha will get 2/5 share

So we have to adjust the sacrifice ratio in that way we

When we add up the ratio it becomes 2/5

So

Adjusting the ratio

4: 1 is the ratio okk

It means 4/5 and 1/5

Multipy the upper side by 2 and lower side by 5

So it becomes 2/5

See the sacrifice ratio 4:1

Xena 4/5× 2/5 as I said above

8/25

Yana

1/5× 2/5 = 2/25

Now check it

Add the ratio

8/25 + 2/25 = 2/5 which is new partner share.

Now we know old - new = sacrifice ratio

Here in the sum we have new ratio and sacrifice ratio

So

Xena 8/25+1/5 =8+5/25

= 13/25

Yana 2/25 + 2/5 = 2+10/25 = 12/25

Old psr = 13:12
