Question 4:Why do firm revaluate assets and reassess their liabilities on retirement or on the event of death of a partner?Answer:

At the time of retirement or death of a partner, it becomes unavoidable to reevaluate the firm’s assets and liabilities to ascertain their true and fair values. Revaluation is necessary because the value of assets and liabilities may increase or decrease with the passage of time. In addition, it may be possible that there are some assets and liabilities that remain unchanged in the books of accounts. The retired or deceased partner may benefit or suffer losses due to changes in the values ​​of assets and liabilities. Therefore, it is necessary for the revaluation of assets and liabilities to ascertain the true profit or loss that is to be divided among all partners in their old profit sharing ratio.

Question 5:Why a retiring/deceased partner is entitled to a share of goodwill of the firm?Answer:

Goodwill is the intangible asset of a firm which is earned by the efforts of all the partners of the firm. After the retirement or death of the partner, the fruits of past performance and reputation will be shared only by the remaining partners. Thus the remaining partners should compensate the retiree or the deceased partner by declaring them part of the goodwill of the firm.

In this situation, it is assumed that the net profit margin of the current year’s sales is the same as the previous year.Share of Deceased Partner’s Profit =×Sales from the beginning of the current year up to the date of death × Share of deceased partnerExample- X Y and Z are equal partners. The last year’s sales and profit were Rs 25,00,000 and Rs 2,50,000. Z died on the April 30, 2011. Sales of the current year till the date of Z’s death amounts to Rs 12,00,000.

Working Notes:

 

1) Pammy’s Share of Profit

Previous Year’s Profit ´ Proportionate Period ´ Share of Deceased Partner

 

2) Pammy’s Share of Goodwill

 

Goodwill of the firm = Average Profit ´ Numbers of Year’s Purchase

 

Average Profit

 

Goodwill of the firm = 50,000 ´ 3 = Rs 1,50,000

 

 

3) Gaining Ratio = New Ratio – Old Ratio

 

Puneet’s Share

 

Pankaj’s Share

 

Gaining Ratio between Puneet and Pankaj = 2 : 2 or 1 : 1

 

4) Interest on Capital for 6 months, i.e. from April 1, 2007 to September 30, 2007

 

Amount of Capital ´ Rate of Interest ´ Period

 

5) Interest Amount

The firm closes its books every year on March 31, while installments to Pammy’s Executor are paid on September 30 every year.

Amount outstanding on 30 September = 75,400 – 15,400 = Rs 60,000

 

Calculation of Interest
Periods	Amount Outstanding	Yearly Interest	For 6 Months
2017-18	60,000
2018-19	45,000
2019-20	30,000

Working Notes:

1. Bharti’s share of profit = Profit is 10% of sales

Sales during the last year for that period were Rs 1,00,000

If sales are Rs 1,00,000, then the profit is Rs 10,000

2. Bharti’s Share of Goodwill

Goodwill of the firm = Average Profit × Number of Years Purchase

Or, 9,000 − 20% of 9,000 = 9,000 − 1,800 = Rs 7,200

Goodwill of the firm = 7,200 × 2 = Rs 14,400

3. Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio

Gaining ratio between Arti and Seema = 3:1

4. Interest on Capital for 73 days, i.e. from April 1, 2016 to June 12, 2016

Interest on capital = Amount of Capital × Ratio of Interest × Period
