Sometimes the capital of the new partner is not given in the question. He/she is required to bring an amount proportionate to his/her share of profit. In such a case, the new partner’s capital will be calculated on the basis of the adjusted capital of the existing(old) partners.

Calculation of New Partner’s Capital on the basis of Old Partners
Step 1. Calculate the adjusted capitals of old Partners (after all adjustments have
been made)
Step 2. Calculate the total closing Capital of the New Firm as under:
Total capital of New Firm = Combined adjusted Closing Capitals of Old Partners ×
Reciprocal of remaining share of profit of old partners.
Step 3. Calculate the proportionate Capital of the New Partner as under:
New Partner’s Capital =Total capital of new firm × New partner’s proportion of share of
profit.

Question 1.

The capital accounts of Mohit and Rachit show the balance after all the adjustments and revaluation as ₹ 80,000 and ₹ 70,000 respectively. They admit Rohit as a new partner for 1/4 share in the profits. Rohit brings proportionate capital in cash. Calculate Rohit’s share of capital.

Solution:

Rohit’s capital is calculated as follows:

Adjusted capital of Mohit=₹ 80,000

Adjusted capital of Rachit=₹ 70,000

Total share = 1

Rohit’s share in the profit = 1/4

Remaining share of Mohit and Rachit = 1 – 1/4 = 3/4

The combined capital of Mohit and Rachit For 3/4 share of profit=

₹ 80,000 + ₹ 70,000 = ₹ 1,50,000

So,Total Capital of the firm   = ₹1,50,000 × 4/3

= ₹ 2,00,000

Rohit’s capital for 1/4 share of profits

= ₹ 2,00,000 × 1/4
