Goodwill ₹ 2,50,000; Plant ₹ 1,25,000; Debtors ₹ 1,55,000; Stock ₹ 1,62,500; Building ₹ 2,00,000; Furniture ₹ 10,000; Bills Receivable ₹ 62,500.

You are required to show the journal entries and prepare the Revaluation A/c.

[Ans. Gain on Revaluation ₹ 40,000.]

Solution:-

Note:-

(1) If the premium for goodwill brought in cash is not mentioned then it is assumed that the new partners do not bring a premium for goodwill in cash. Thus, it is adjusted through the new partner’s current Account.

(2) In the absence of any additional information, the sacrificing ratio is always equal to the old ratio, i.e., 5:3.
