**Sales in the year 2011-12 = 4,00,000
Profit for year 2011-12 = 2,00,000 = 50% of Sales.
Therefore, Profit for the Period Apr 01 to 30th Sep = 50% of Sales of the same period
Share of Profit to be divided = 50% of Rs 1,20,000 = Rs 60,000
Chetan’s Share of Profit = 1/4th of Rs 60,000 = Rs 15,000

Question 1:
A, B and C were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/2, 2/5 and 1/10. Find the new ratio of the remaining partners if C retires.
Answer:
Old Ratio (A, B and C) = or 5 : 4 : 1
As we can see, no information is given as to how A and B are acquiring C's profit share after his retirement, so the new profit sharing ratio between A and B is calculated just by crossing out the C’s share. That is, the new ratio becomes 5 : 4.
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and B) = 5 : 4
Page No 5.80:
Question 2:
Ram, Mohan and Sohan were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/5, 1/3 and 7/15 respectively. Sohan retires and his share was taken by Ram and Mohan in the ratio of 3:2. Find out the new ratio.
Answer:
Old Ratio (Ram, Mohan and Sohan) = or 3 : 5 : 7
Sohan’s Profit Share =
Ram and Mohan decided to take his share in the ratio of 3 : 2
New Profit Share = Old Profit Share + Share taken from Sohan
∴ New Profit Ratio (Ram and Mohan) = 36 : 39 or 12 : 13
Page No 5.80:
Question 3:
From the following particulars, calculate new profit-sharing ratio of the partners:
(a) Shiv, Mohan and Hari were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 5 : 5 : 4. Mohan retired and his share was divided equally between Shiv and Hari.
(b) P, Q and R were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 5 : 4 : 1. P retires from the firm.
Answer:
(a)
Old Ratio (Shiv, Mohan and Hari) = 5 : 5 : 4
Mohan’s Profit Share =
His share is divided between Shiv and Hari equally i.e. in the ratio of 1: 1
New Profit Share = Old Profit Share + Share taken from Mohan
∴ New Profit Ratio (Shiv and Hari) = 15 : 13
(b)
Old Ratio (P, Q and R) = 5 : 4 : 1
P’s Profit Share =
As we can see, no information is given as to how Q and R are acquiring P's profit share after his retirement, so the new profit sharing ratio between Q and R is calculated just by crossing out the P’s share. That is, the new ratio becomes 4 : 1
∴New Profit Ratio (Q and R) = 4 : 1
Page No 5.80:
Question 4:
Sita, Geeta and Meeta were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 7:6:7. Geeta retired and her share was divided equally between Sita and Meeta. Calculate the new profit-sharing ratio of Sita and Meeta.
Answer:
Old Ratio (Sita, Geeta and Meeta) = 7 : 6 : 7
Geeta’s Profit Share =
Her share is divided between Sita and Meeta equally i.e. in the ratio of 1: 1
New Profit Share = Old Profit Share + Share taken from Geeta
∴ New Profit Ratio (Sita and Meeta) = 20 : 20 or 1 : 1

Question 5:
R, S and M are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 2/5, 2/5 and 1/5. M decides to retire from the business and his share is taken by R and S in the ratio of 1 : 2. Calculate the new profit-sharing ratio.
Answer:
Old Ratio (R, S and M) = 2 : 2 : 1
M retires from the firm.
His profit share =
M’s share taken by R and S in ratio of 1 : 2
New Ratio = Old Ratio + Share acquired from M
∴ New Profit Ratio (R and S) = 7 : 8

Question 6:
A, B and C were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 4 : 3 : 2. A retires, assuming B and C will share profits in the ratio of 2 : 1. Determine the gaining ratio.
Answer:
Old Ratio (A, B and C) = 4 : 3 : 2
New Ratio (B and C) = 2 : 1
Gaining RatioNew Ratio − Old Ratio
∴Gaining Ratio = 3 : 1

Question 7:
Kangli, Mangli and Sanvali are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 4:3:2 . Kangli retires . Assuming Mangli and Sanvali will share profits in the future in the ratio of 5:3, determine the gaining ratio.
Answer:
Old Ratio (Kangli, Mangli and Sanvali) = 4 : 3 : 2
New Ratio (Mangli and Sanvali) = 5 : 3
Gaining RatioNew Ratio − Old Ratio
∴Gaining Ratio = 21 : 11

Question 8:
X, Y and Z are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/2, 3/10, and 1/5. Calculate the gaining ratio of remaining partners when Y retires from the firm.
Answer:

(a) W, X, Y and Z are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 1/3, 1/6, 1/3 and 1/6 respectively. Y retires and W, X and Z decide to share the profits and losses equally in future.
Calculate gaining ratio.
(b) A, B and C are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 4 : 3 : 2. C retires from the business. A is acquiring 4/9 of C's share and balance is acquired by B. Calculate the new profit-sharing ratio and gaining ratio.
Answer:
(a)
Old Ratio (W, X, Y and Z) = or 2 : 1 : 2 : 1
New Ratio (W, X and Z) = 1 : 1 : 1
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio
∴Gaining Ratio = 0 : 1 : 1
(b)
Old Ratio (A, B and C) = 4 : 3 : 2
C’s Profit Share =
A acquires 4/9 of C’s Share and remaining share is acquired by B.
New Profit Share = Old Profit Share + Share acquired from C
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and B) = 44 : 37
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio
∴Gaining Ratio = 8 : 10 or 4 : 5

Answer:
Old Ratio (A, B, C and D) = 5 : 3 : 2 : 2
B’s Profit Share =
C’s Profit Share =
B’s Share was acquired by D and C’s share was acquired by A.
∴ D’s New Share = D’s Old share + Share of B
A’s New Share = A’s Old Share + Share of C
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and D) = 7 : 5

Question 12:
A, B, and C were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 8 : 4 : 3. B retires and his share is taken up equally by A and C. Find the new profit-sharing ratio.
Answer:
Old Ratio (A, B and C) = 8 : 4 : 3
B retires from the firm.
His profit share =
B’s share taken by A and C in ratio of 1 : 1
New Ratio = Old Ratio + Share acquired from B

Question 16:
A, B and C are partners in a firm sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 4 : 3 : 2. B decides to retire from the firm. Calculate new profit-sharing ratio of A and C in the following circumstances:
(a) If B gives his share to A and C in the original ratio of A and C.
(b) If B gives his share to A and C in equal proportion.
(c) If B gives his share to A and C in the ratio of 3 : 1.
(d) If B gives his share to A only.
Answer:
Old Ratio (A, B and C) = 4 : 3 : 2
B retires from the firm.
His profit share =
Case (a) B gives his share to A and C in their original ratio.
Original Share (A and C) = 4 : 2
New Ratio = Old Ratio + Share acquired from B
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and C) = 36 : 18 or 2 : 1
Case (b) B gives his share to A and C in equal proportion.
New Ratio = Old Ratio + Share acquired from B
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and C) = 11 : 7
Case (c) B gives his to A and C in the ratio 3 : 1.
New Ratio = Old Ratio + Share acquired from B
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and C) = 25 : 11
Case (d) B gives his share to A only.
A’s New Share = A’s Old Share + Share of B
C’s Share
∴ New Profit Ratio (A and C) = 7 : 2
