(xiv) D, E, F are partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 1:1:1. They decided to share profits in the ratio 2:3:5. The goodwill of the firm was valued at ₹1,80,000.

(B) ₹11,250 ; ₹65,000
(C) ₹12,250 ; ₹56,000
(D) ₹10,000 ; ₹60,000
Part 1: Calculate Ranabir's Capital for ¼ Share
Old partners' capital (¾ share) = ₹45,000
Total capital = ₹45,000 ÷ (¾) = ₹60,000
Ranabir's capital (¼ of ₹60,000) = ₹15,000
Part 2: If Ranabir brings ₹20,000 for ¼ share
Total capital = ₹20,000 × 4 = ₹80,000
Explanation: Based on the agreed profit-sharing ratio, Ranabir should contribute proportionate capital. If he brings more than the proportional share, it increases the overall capital of the firm.

Less: Value of salvaged stock | (24.6) |
Loss of stock | 100.6 |

* For financial statement purposes, this would form part of closing stock (since there is no sale). However, this has been shown separately for computation of claim for loss of stock since the goods were physically not with the concern and, hence, there was no loss of such stock.
2. Calculation of goods with customers
Since no approval for sale has been received for the goods of ₹ 66,000 (i.e. 2/3 of ₹ 99,000) hence, these should be valued at cost i.e. ₹ 66,000 – 20% of ₹ 66,000 = ₹ 52,800.
3. Calculation of actual sales
Total sales – Sale of goods on approval (2/3rd) = ₹ 5,50,000 – ₹ 66,000 = ₹ 4,84,000.
