Old profit sharing ratio =14:5:6

Computation of Goodwill:
Average profit =(50000+55000+60000)/3=55000/-
Normal profit = 30000
Super profit =25000
Good will = super profit *2 years purchase= 25000*2=50000/-
Good will already in the book= 75000
Difference in present and book value of goodwill to be adjusted=75000-50000=25000
Good will to be debited in old profit sharing ratio 14:5:6

Arjun 25000*14/25=14000
Bhim 25000* 5/25=5000
Nakul 25000*6/25=6000

Computation of new profit sharing ratio:
Arjun’s new share =14/25+5/25 =19/25
Nakuls new share= 6/25
New profit sharing ratio= 19:6
Appropriation of new profit
Arjun: (100000*19)/25=76,000
Nakul: (100000*6)/25=24,000
