Xen, Sam, and Tim are partners in a firm. For the year ended 31st March 2024, the profit of the firm ₹ 12,00,000 was distributed equally among them, without giving effect to the following terms of the partnership deed:

i) Sam’s guarantee to the firm that the firm would earn a profit of at least ₹ 1,35,000. Any shortfall in these profits would be met by him.

ii) Profits to be shared in the ratio of 2:2:1.

You are required to pass the necessary Journal entries to rectify the error in accounting.

Note:-

1. Profit wrongly distributed earlier in 1 : 1 : 1 is reversed in first country.

2. Sam’s guaranteed that the firm would earn at least ₹ 1,35,000 profit and any shortfall would be met by him. Thus the short fall ₹ 15,000 ( ₹ 135,000 – ₹ 1,20,000) is debited by Sam’s Capital A/c and credit to firm’s Profity and Loss Adjustment Account.
