Retirement of a Partner Class 12 NCERT Solutions PDF

Concept used. Retirement of a partner means a partner ceases to be a partner of the firm while the firm continues with the remaining partners. Under Section 32 of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932, a partner can retire in any of the following three ways.

1. With the consent of all other partners. The partnership deed may be silent on retirement; in that case the retiring partner must obtain the consent of every continuing partner. This is the most common route in practice because most deeds simply require mutual consent.
2. In accordance with an express agreement among the partners. If the partnership deed itself provides for retirement (for example, a clause that a partner above 60 years of age may retire by giving 3 months' written notice), the partner may retire under that clause without seeking fresh consent at the time of retirement.
3. By giving notice in writing. Where the partnership is at will (no fixed period, no project-based duration), any partner may retire by giving a written notice of his intention to retire to all the other partners.

A partner can retire (i) with consent of all partners, (ii) under an express clause in the deed, or (iii) by written notice if the partnership is at will.

Concept used. On retirement, the books and equities of the firm must be updated so that the retiring partner's exit value is fairly computed and the continuing partners begin afresh with restated capitals. The five standard adjustments are listed below.

1. New profit-sharing ratio and gaining ratio of the continuing partners are computed. The gaining ratio = new share - old share for each continuing partner.
2. Treatment of goodwill. The retiring partner is credited with his share of goodwill; the continuing partners are debited in their gaining ratio. If goodwill already appears in the books, it is first written off among ALL partners in the old ratio.
3. Revaluation of assets and reassessment of liabilities. A Revaluation Account is prepared. The profit or loss on revaluation is shared among ALL partners (including the retiring partner) in the OLD ratio.
4. Distribution of reserves and accumulated profits/losses appearing on the liabilities/assets side of the balance sheet (General Reserve, P&L A/c balance) is made among ALL partners in the OLD ratio.
5. Settlement of the retiring partner's account. The total amount standing to his credit is paid either (a) immediately in lump sum, or (b) in instalments with interest, or (c) transferred to his Loan Account.

Adjustments: new ratio + gaining ratio; goodwill; revaluation; reserves & accumulated profits; settlement of capital.

Concept used. Sacrificing ratio arises on admission of a partner and equals the share that each old partner gives up to the new partner. Gaining ratio arises on retirement / death of a partner and equals the share that each continuing partner picks up from the outgoing partner.

1. Meaning. Sacrificing ratio = Old share - New share (positive, since the old partner sacrifices). Gaining ratio = New share - Old share (positive, since the continuing partner gains).
2. Occasion. Sacrificing ratio is computed at the time of admission. Gaining ratio is computed at the time of retirement or death.
3. Purpose. Sacrificing ratio is used to credit the sacrificing partners with their share of the new partner's goodwill premium. Gaining ratio is used to debit the gaining partners with their share of the retiring/deceased partner's goodwill.
4. Effect on share. Sacrificing partners' share decreases; gaining partners' share increases.
5. Journal direction. On admission: Dr. Cash/New partner's Capital, Cr. Old partners (sacrificing ratio). On retirement: Dr. Continuing partners (gaining ratio), Cr. Retiring partner.

Sacrificing ratio: Old - New, used on admission. Gaining ratio: New - Old, used on retirement/death.

Concept used. Revaluation of assets and reassessment of liabilities brings each asset to its current fair value and each liability to its current settlement value. The resulting profit or loss is shared in the OLD ratio because it arose during the period the outgoing partner was still a partner.

1. Fair share to the outgoing partner. Book values reflect cost less depreciation, not current worth. If a building bought for Rs. 1,00,000 is now worth Rs. 1,50,000, the unrecognised gain of Rs. 50,000 was earned while the outgoing partner was in the firm; he is entitled to his share.
2. Fair start for continuing partners. After revaluation the balance sheet shows realistic values. Future profits/losses will be shared by the continuing partners alone; they should not inherit a hidden loss or windfall that pre-dates them.
3. Liabilities too. An undisclosed legal-damages claim of Rs. 20,000 must be brought on the books as a provision; ignoring it would unfairly enrich the outgoing partner.
4. Old ratio because the gain/loss is historical. The Revaluation A/c profit/loss is shared in the OLD ratio, never in the new ratio or gaining ratio.

To ensure the outgoing partner is paid (and the continuing partners take over) at fair current values; the gain/loss is shared in the OLD ratio.

Concept used. Goodwill is the present value of the firm's expected super-profits, that is, the excess of expected future profits over the normal return on capital. It is a self-generated intangible asset that built up over years through the joint efforts of ALL partners (including the outgoing one).

1. Contribution principle. The retiring/deceased partner contributed his time, capital and reputation to building the firm's goodwill. He should not walk away empty-handed when the continuing partners go on to enjoy the super-profits.
2. No goodwill recorded earlier. Because goodwill is self-generated, accounting standards do not allow it to sit on the books. So at retirement the firm valuates goodwill afresh.
3. Adjustment journal. The continuing partners debit their capital accounts in the gaining ratio and credit the retiring partner's capital with HIS share of goodwill: Dr. Continuing partners' Capital (gaining ratio) Cr. Retiring partner's Capital (his share of goodwill)
4. No new asset is raised. Goodwill is NOT brought into the books as an asset; it is only adjusted through capital accounts.

Because goodwill was jointly built by all partners and the continuing partners will enjoy the future super-profits; the retiring partner is therefore credited with his share via the gaining-ratio adjustment.

Concept used. The amount due to a retiring partner is the closing credit balance of his Capital Account after all adjustments (revaluation, reserves, goodwill, share of profit till date of retirement). This sum can be settled in any of the four standard modes below.

1. Lump-sum cash payment. The entire amount is paid immediately: Dr. Retiring partner's Capital A/c ; Cr. Cash/Bank A/c. Used when the firm has enough liquidity.
2. Payment in instalments with interest. A part is paid in cash and the balance carries interest at the agreed rate (statutory rate is 6% p.a. if no agreement). The unpaid balance is transferred to the retiring partner's Loan A/c; interest is credited yearly until the balance is cleared.
3. Transfer to Loan A/c (full transfer). The entire balance is treated as a loan from the retiring partner to the firm and repaid as per agreed terms. Interest at 6% p.a. accrues unless otherwise agreed. Journal: Dr. Retiring partner's Capital A/c ; Cr. Retiring partner's Loan A/c.
4. Payment partly in assets and partly in cash. For example, investments held by the firm may be transferred to the retiring partner at agreed value, and the residual paid in cash.

Four modes: (i) lump-sum cash, (ii) instalments with interest, (iii) transfer to Loan A/c, (iv) part-assets + part-cash.

Concept used. On the death of a partner, the firm prepares his Capital Account up to the date of death; the closing credit balance becomes the amount due to his executor (legal heir). The Capital A/c is built up by adding the following items.

1. Opening capital as on the last balance sheet date.
2. Share of accumulated profits / reserves (e.g. General Reserve, P&L A/c balance) in the OLD ratio.
3. Share of profit on revaluation of assets and liabilities in the OLD ratio (loss if revaluation showed a loss).
4. Share of goodwill credited via gaining-ratio adjustment from continuing partners.
5. Interest on capital for the period from the last balance sheet date to the date of death, if provided in the deed.
6. Share of profit from the closing date of the last financial year to the date of death. Two common bases:
   • Time basis: share = last year's profit × months/days12 or 365 × partner's share.
   • Sales/Turnover basis: share = sales of intervening period × last year's profit ratio (profit / sales) × partner's share.
7. Less drawings and less interest on drawings, if any.
8. The closing credit balance is transferred to the deceased partner's Executor's Account: Dr. Deceased partner's Capital A/c ; Cr. Executor's A/c.

Amount payable = Opening capital + share of reserves + revaluation profit + goodwill + interest on capital + share of intervening-period profit - drawings - interest on drawings.

Concept used. The retiring/deceased partner is entitled to his share of the firm's goodwill. Accounting Standard 26 (Intangible Assets) prohibits the firm from raising self-generated goodwill in the books, so the adjustment is made through capital accounts only.

1. Step A: write off any existing goodwill in the books in the OLD ratio among ALL partners: Dr. All partners' Capital A/c (old ratio); Cr. Goodwill A/c.
2. Step B: value the firm's goodwill afresh (often given in the problem or computed by Average-Profit, Super-Profit, or Capitalisation method).
3. Step C: compute the gaining ratio of continuing partners = new share - old share.
4. Step D: adjust the retiring partner's share of goodwill: Dr. Continuing partners' Capital A/c (gaining ratio) Cr. Retiring/Deceased partner's Capital A/c (his share of goodwill).
5. No new Goodwill A/c is opened. The intangible value moves from the gainers to the leaver via capitals.

Write off any existing goodwill in old ratio; then debit continuing partners (gaining ratio) and credit retiring/deceased partner with HIS share of goodwill.

Concept used. When a partner dies during the year, his estate is entitled to a share of profit for the period from the last balance-sheet date to the date of death. There are two recognised bases.

1. Method 1: Time basis (using last year's profit). Share = Last year's profit × Period (months or days)12 or 365 × Deceased partner's share. Used when the deed says ``share of profit on the basis of last year's profit''.

   Example. Last year's profit Rs. 60,000; partner dies after 3 months; his share is 16. Share = 60,000 × 312 × 16 = 15,000 × 16 = Rs. 2,500.

2. Method 2: Sales (turnover) basis. aligned Share &= Sales during intervening period
   & × Last year's profitLast year's sales × Deceased partner's share. aligned Used when the deed says ``share based on sales during the period''.

   Example. Sales during 3 months Rs. 1,00,000; last year sales Rs. 6,00,000, profit Rs. 60,000; profit rate = 60,000/6,00,000 = 10%; partner's share 16. Share = 1,00,000 × 10% × 16 = 10,000 × 16 = Rs. 1,667.

3. Method 3: Average-profit basis (variant). Sometimes the deed specifies the average of past few years' profits as the base: Share = Average profit × Period12 × Deceased partner's share.
4. Journal entry for the share of profit (under Time/Average/Sales basis): Dr. Profit & Loss Suspense A/c ; Cr. Deceased Partner's Capital A/c.

Three approaches: (i) Time basis on last year's profit, (ii) Sales basis using last year's profit-to-sales ratio, (iii) Average-profit basis. The share is credited to the deceased partner's Capital A/c via a P&L Suspense debit.

Concept used. On retirement the continuing partners must compensate the retiring partner for her share of goodwill. The adjustment is passed through capital accounts in the gaining ratio, where gain = new share - old share.

1. Old ratio of Aparna, Manisha, Sonia = 3 : 2 : 1. Aparna = 36, Manisha = 26, Sonia = 16.
2. New ratio of Aparna, Sonia = 3 : 2. Aparna = 35, Sonia = 25.
3. Gaining ratio = New share - Old share. aligned Aparna's gain &= 35 - 36 = 18 - 1530 = 330 = 110.
   Sonia's gain &= 25 - 16 = 12 - 530 = 730. aligned Gaining ratio Aparna : Sonia = 330 : 730 = 3 : 7.
4. Manisha's share of goodwill = 26 × 1,80,000 = 13 × 1,80,000 = Rs. 60,000.
5. Allocate Rs. 60,000 to Aparna and Sonia in 3 : 7: aligned Aparna's debit &= 60,000 × 310 = Rs. 18,000.
   Sonia's debit &= 60,000 × 710 = Rs. 42,000. aligned
6. Journal entry.

Dr. Aparna Rs. 18,000; Dr. Sonia Rs. 42,000; Cr. Manisha Rs. 60,000.

Concept used. When goodwill already exists in the books, it must FIRST be written off in the OLD ratio among ALL partners (AS-26 forbids carrying self-generated goodwill). Then the new goodwill value is adjusted through capital accounts in the gaining ratio.

1. Old ratio = 2 : 3 : 5 ⇒ 210, 310, 510.
2. New ratio of Saroj and Shanti = 1 : 1 ⇒ 12, 12.
3. Gaining ratio. aligned Saroj's gain &= 12 - 310 = 5 - 310 = 210.
   Shanti's gain &= 12 - 510 = 5 - 510 = 0. aligned So Saroj alone gains; the gaining ratio is effectively 2 : 0 (i.e. Saroj absorbs Sangeeta's entire share).
4. Write-off entry for existing goodwill of Rs. 60,000 in old ratio 2 : 3 : 5: aligned Sangeeta &= 60,000 × 210 = 12,000.
   Saroj &= 60,000 × 310 = 18,000.
   Shanti &= 60,000 × 510 = 30,000. aligned
5. Sangeeta's share of new goodwill = 210 × 90,000 = Rs. 18,000. This is borne entirely by Saroj (since Shanti gains nothing).
6. Journal entries.

Step 1: write off existing goodwill (Sangeeta 12,000; Saroj 18,000; Shanti 30,000). Step 2: Saroj's Capital Dr. 18,000; Sangeeta's Capital Cr. 18,000.

Concept used. A Revaluation Account (also called Profit and Loss Adjustment A/c) is opened to record changes in the values of assets and liabilities. Increase in asset value or decrease in liability = credit to Revaluation A/c (gain); decrease in asset or increase in liability = debit (loss). The net profit/loss is shared among ALL partners (including the retiring one) in the OLD ratio.

1. Compute each revaluation item. aligned Building appreciation &= 1,00,000 × 20% = 20,000 (gain).
   P&M depreciation &= 40,000 × 10% = 4,000 (loss).
   Provision on debtors &= 20,000 × 5% = 1,000 (loss).
   Stock revaluation loss &= 20,000 - 18,000 = 2,000 (loss).
   Investment gain &= 35,000 - 30,000 = 5,000 (gain). aligned
2. Net revaluation result. Gains = 20,000 + 5,000 = 25,000; losses = 4,000 + 2,000 + 1,000 = 7,000. Net profit = 25,000 - 7,000 = Rs. 18,000.
3. Distribution in old ratio 3 : 2 : 1. aligned Himanshu &= 18,000 × 36 = 9,000.
   Gagan &= 18,000 × 26 = 6,000.
   Naman &= 18,000 × 16 = 3,000. aligned

Revaluation Account.

Journal entries.

Profit on Revaluation Rs. 18,000 distributed 9,000 : 6,000 : 3,000 in old ratio 3 : 2 : 1.

Concept used. Accumulated reserves (General Reserve, P&L credit) are profits earned BEFORE retirement; accumulated losses (P&L debit) are losses incurred BEFORE retirement. Both belong to ALL partners in the OLD ratio (here, equal = 1 : 1 : 1).

1. Equal ratio ⇒ each partner's share = 13.
2. Distribute General Reserve Rs. 36,000 (credit balance) in old ratio: Each partner = 36,000 × 13 = Rs. 12,000.
3. Distribute P&L A/c (Dr.) Rs. 15,000 (debit ⇒ accumulated loss) in old ratio: Each partner = 15,000 × 13 = Rs. 5,000.
4. Journal entries.

General Reserve Rs. 36,000 credited equally (Rs. 12,000 each); P&L (Dr.) Rs. 15,000 debited equally (Rs. 5,000 each).

Concept used. Build the solution in four passes: (A) Revaluation A/c to absorb bad debts and patent write-off, distributed in OLD ratio; (B) Goodwill adjustment via gaining-ratio Dr./Cr. on capitals (no goodwill brought to books); (C) Reserve distribution in OLD ratio; (D) Settlement of Brijesh and preparation of the new Balance Sheet.

1. Old ratio 2 : 2 : 1 ⇒ 25, 25, 15. With Brijesh retiring, the continuing partners' new ratio is taken in the OLD relative shares of the continuing partners, i.e. Digvijay : Parakaram = 2 : 1 = 23 : 13.
2. Gaining ratio. aligned Digvijay gain &= 23 - 25 = 10 - 615 = 415.
   Parakaram gain &= 13 - 15 = 5 - 315 = 215. aligned Gaining ratio = 4 : 2 = 2 : 1.
3. Revaluation A/c. Bad debts Rs. 2,000 + Patents Rs. 9,000 = Rs. 11,000 total loss. Split in old ratio 2 : 2 : 1: Rs. 4,400, Rs. 4,400, Rs. 2,200.

4. Brijesh's share of goodwill = 25 × 70,000 = Rs. 28,000. Borne by continuing partners in gaining ratio 2 : 1: aligned Digvijay's debit &= 28,000 × 23 ≈ Rs. 18,667.
   Parakaram's debit &= 28,000 × 13 ≈ Rs. 9,333. aligned
5. Reserve distribution in old ratio. aligned Digvijay &= 18,500 × 25 = 7,400.
   Brijesh &= 18,500 × 25 = 7,400.
   Parakaram &= 18,500 × 15 = 3,700. aligned
6. Closing balances (per NCERT answer key). Digvijay Rs. 66,333; Parakaram Rs. 67,667; Brijesh's credit balance of Rs. 91,000 settled (cash/loan); Balance Sheet total Rs. 2,74,000.

Loss on revaluation Rs. 11,000; balances, Digvijay Rs. 66,333 and Parakaram Rs. 67,667; Brijesh paid Rs. 91,000; Balance Sheet total Rs. 2,74,000.

Concept used. Standard four-pass retirement: revaluation, goodwill, reserves, settlement.

1. Old ratio 3 : 2 : 1 ⇒ 36, 26, 16. Continuing partners Radha : Meena in old shares = 3 : 1.
2. Gaining ratio. aligned Radha &= 34 - 36 = 9 - 612 = 312.
   Meena &= 14 - 16 = 3 - 212 = 112. aligned Gaining ratio = 3 : 1.
3. Revaluation entries. aligned Premises gain &= 24,300 - 22,500 = 1,800.
   Machinery loss &= 8,000 × 10% = 800.
   Loose Tools loss &= 4,000 × 10% = 400.
   Outstanding exp. decrease &= 4,500 - 3,750 = 750 (gain). aligned
4. Net revaluation result. Total gain = 1,800 + 750 = 2,550. Total loss = 800 + 400 = 1,200. Net profit = 2,550 - 1,200 = Rs. 1,350.
5. Distribution of revaluation profit in old ratio. Radha = 1,350 × 36 = 675; Sheela = 1,350 × 26 = 450; Meena = 1,350 × 16 = 225.
6. Sheela's share of goodwill = 26 × 13,500 = Rs. 4,500. Borne by Radha : Meena in gaining ratio 3 : 1: Radha = 4,500 × 34 = 3,375; Meena = 4,500 × 14 = 1,125.
7. Reserve distribution (Rs. 13,500) in old ratio: Radha Rs. 6,750; Sheela Rs. 4,500; Meena Rs. 2,250.
8. Closing balances. aligned Radha &= 15,000 + 6,750 + 675 - 3,375 = 19,050.
   Meena &= 15,000 + 2,250 + 225 - 1,125 = 16,350.
   Sheela (paid) &= 15,000 + 4,500 + 450 + 4,500 = 24,450. aligned

Profit on Revaluation Rs. 1,350; Radha Rs. 19,050; Meena Rs. 16,350; Sheela paid Rs. 24,450; Balance Sheet total Rs. 71,100.

Concept used. Mid-year retirement: in addition to the usual four passes, the retiring partner gets a share of the current year's profit based on last year's profit, pro-rated for 6 months (April to September).

1. Old ratio 3 : 2 : 1; new ratio of continuing partners Pankaj : Saurabh = 5 : 1.
2. Gaining ratio. aligned Pankaj gain &= 56 - 36 = 26.
   Saurabh gain &= 16 - 16 = 0. aligned Pankaj alone gains; Saurabh's share is unchanged.
3. Revaluation items. aligned Premises gain &= 80,000 × 20% = 16,000.
   Furniture gain &= 45,000 - 41,000 = 4,000.
   Legal damages decrease &= 6,000 - 1,200 = 4,800 (gain, prov. reduced).
   Stock loss &= 9,000 × 10% = 900.
   Debtors prov. change &= 6,000 × 5% - 400 = -100 (gain).

5. Reserve Rs. 12,000 in old ratio: Pankaj Rs. 6,000; Naresh Rs. 4,000; Saurabh Rs. 2,000.
6. Goodwill Rs. 42,000: Naresh's share = 26 × 42,000 = Rs. 14,000. Borne fully by Pankaj (sole gainer): Dr. Pankaj Rs. 14,000; Cr. Naresh Rs. 14,000.
7. Naresh's share of profit (Apr to Sept, 6 months) = 60,000 × 612 × 26 = 30,000 × 13 = Rs. 10,000. Journal: Dr. P&L Suspense Rs. 10,000; Cr. Naresh's Capital Rs. 10,000.
8. Naresh's total credit. aligned Naresh &= 30,000 + 4,000 + 6,000 + 14,000

Revaluation profit Rs. 18,000; Pankaj's capital Rs. 47,000; Saurabh's capital Rs. 25,000; Naresh paid Rs. 54,000; Balance Sheet total Rs. 1,54,800.

Concept used. On a partner's death between balance-sheet dates, the deceased partner is entitled to: (a) share of accumulated reserves in old PSR, (b) interest on capital till date of death, (c) share of profit till date of death (here, on previous year's profit basis), (d) share of firm's goodwill, all credited to his Capital A/c. The final balance is transferred to an Executor's A/c, which is settled in the agreed manner.

1. Pammy's share of Reserve (old ratio 2:2:1; Pammy = 15): 50,000 × 15 = Rs. 10,000.
2. Interest on Capital @ 12% for 6 months (Apr–Sept): 40,000 × 12100 × 612 = Rs. 2,400.
3. Share of profit till date of death (Apr–Sept = 6 months; last year's profit Rs. 30,000): 30,000 × 612 × 15 = Rs. 3,000.
4. Goodwill of firm = 3 × average of 4 years: Avg = 80,000 + 50,000 + 40,000 + 30,0004 = 2,00,0004 = 50,000. Goodwill = 3 × 50,000 = Rs. 1,50,000. Pammy's share = 15 × 1,50,000 = Rs. 30,000, borne by Puneet and Pankaj in their gaining ratio 2:2 = 1:1 (Rs. 15,000 each).
