Correct Option: C
Explanation:

One of the popular form of business now a days is partnership firms. Its defined as the"relation between two or more person who have agreed to share the profits of a business carried on by them."  Here the question is about the treatment of workmen compensation reserve appearing in the balance sheet. 


As there is a change in the constitution of partnership, the workmen compensation reserve that is appearing in the balance sheet should be distributed among the partners in their old profit sharing ratio. As no more information is available regarding the reserve and there is a change in the constitution of the firm by way of change in profit sharing ratio, so the reserve which relates to balance sheet before change in profit ratio should be distributed in the old ratio among the partners.

Whenever the question is silent on the treatment of workmen compensation reserve and no further information is available it is advisable to distribute it in old profit sharing ratio among the partners. So, the whole amount appearing in the balance sheet should be distributed

X, Y and Z are partners sharing profits in the ratio of $ 5:3:2.$ They decide to share future profits in the ratio of $2:3:5$ with effect from $1^{st}$ April, $2018$ . They also decide to record the effect of following revaluation without affecting the book values of assets and liabilities, by passing single adjusting entry :

Book Value (Rs.) Revised Value (Rs.)
Land and Building  3,00,000 4,50,000
Plant and Machinery 4,50,000 4,20,000
Trade Creditors 1,50,000 1,35,000
Outstanding Rent  1,35,000 1,80,000

The necessary single adjustment entry will be:

  1. Dr. Z and Cr. X by Rs. 27,000.

  2. Dr. X and Cr. Z by Rs. 27,000.

  3. Dr. Y and Cr. X by Rs. 27,000.

  4. Dr. X and Cr. X by Rs. 27,000.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

To get the adjustment entry done, first need to find out the profit /loss on revaluation. Since books of account are not to be affected due to revaluation, hence an adjustment entry need to be passed:


Revaluation difference can be calculated as: 

Particulars                          Book Value         Revised Value        Gain/Loss

Land & Building                 300000                450000                  150000
Plant & Machinery             450000                420000                  - 30000
Trade Creditors                  150000                 135000                     15000
Outstanding Rent               135000                 180000                   -45000
                                                                                                       ------------------
   Net Gain on Revaluation                                                              90000
                                                                                                       -------------------

Share on revaluation:                   X                       Y                        Z
As per old Ratio                      45000                27000               18000
As per New Ratio                    18000                27000               45000
                                               --------------           --------------           --------------
Sacrifice/Gain                         27000                 NIL                   -27000
                                                -------------           ---------------         ---------------
Hence below adjustment entry will be passed:

Z's A/c                                      Dr. 27000
        To X's A/c                                                  27000

X, Y and Z are sharing profits & losses in the ratio of 5:3:2. They decide to share future profits & losses in the ratio of 2:3:5 with effect from 1st April. They also decide to record the effect of following revaluations without affecting the book values of the assets & liabilities, by passing a single adjusting entry:

Book Figure Revalued Figure
Land & Building Rs 60,000 Rs 90,000
Plant & Machinery Rs 90,000 Rs 84,000
Trade Creditors Rs 30,000 Rs 27,000
Outstanding Expenses Rs 27,000 Rs 36,000

The necessary single adjusting entry will involve:

  1. Debit Z and Credit X with Rs 5,400

  2. Debit X and Credit Z with Rs 5,400

  3. Debit Y and Credit X with Rs 5,400

  4. Debit X and Credit Y with Rs 5,400


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In this question,revaluation account has to be prepared to calculate any profit or loss due to revaluation of assets or liabilities.

A revaluation account is prepared on the basis that reduction in assets or increased liability are debited but reduced liability or increased assets are credited.
Revaluation profit or loss$=Rs30,000(credited)-Rs6,000(debited)+Rs3000(credited)-Rs9000(debited)\quad =Rs18,000$
The next step is to calculate sacrifising ratio of X, Y and Z
X's sacrifising ratio$=\frac { 5 }{ 10 } -\frac { 2 }{ 10 } \quad =\frac { 3 }{ 10 } $
Y's sacrifising ratio$=\frac { 3 }{ 10 } -\frac { 3 }{ 10 } \quad =\frac { 0 }{ 10 } $
Z's sacrifising ratio$=\frac { 2 }{ 10 } -\frac { 5 }{ 10 } \quad =\frac { -3 }{ 10 } $
It is clear from above that X has sacrifised whereas Z has gained and Y is out of it.
X's sacrificed amount$=\frac { 3 }{ 10 } \times Rs18,000\quad =Rs5,400$
Z's gained amount$=\frac { 3 }{ 10 } \times Rs18,000\quad =Rs5,400$
Since, journal entry for chnage in ratio is 
$Gain\ \quad To\quad Sacrifise$
Hence, X is credited with $Rs5,400$ and Z has to be debited with $Rs5,400$

X, Y and Z are partners sharing profits & losses in the ratio of 5:3:2. From 1st April they decide to share profits and losses in the ratio of 2:5:3. The Partnership deed provides that in the event of any change in profit sharing ratio, the goodwill should be valued at two years' purchase of the average profits of the preceding 5 years. The profits and losses of the preceding years are:
i. Profit Rs 39,000,
ii. Profit Rs 57,000,
iii. Profit Rs 24,000,
iv. Profit Rs 27,000,
v. Loss Rs 12,000.
The necessary single adjusting entry will involve:

  1. Debit Y by Rs 10,800 and Z by Rs 5,400 and Credit X by Rs 16,200.

  2. Debit Z by Rs 10,800 and Y by Rs 5,400 and Credit X by Rs 16,200.

  3. Debit X by Rs 10,800 and Z by Rs 5,400 and Credit Y by Rs 16,200.

  4. Debit Z by Rs 10,800 and X by Rs 5,400 and Credit Y by Rs 16,200.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Goodwill for two-year purchase of average profit can be calculated using the formula given below:

$Goodwill=\quad Average\quad profit\times No.\quad of\quad purchase\quad year$
Substitute values in the above equation
$Goodwill=\quad \frac { Rs39,000+Rs57,000+Rs24,000+Rs27,000-Rs12,000 }{ 5 } \times 2years\quad =\frac { Rs1,35,000 }{ 5 } \times 2\quad =Rs54,000$
Now, sacrifising ratio of X, Y and Z has to be calculated using the formula given below
$Sacrifising\quad ratio=\quad Old\quad ratio-New\quad ratio$
X's sacrifising ratio$=\quad \frac { 5 }{ 10 } -\frac { 2 }{ 10 } \quad =\frac { 3 }{ 10 } $
Y's sacrifising ratio$=\quad \frac { 3 }{ 10 } -\frac { 5 }{ 10 } \quad =\frac { -2 }{ 10 } $
Z's sacrifising ratio$=\quad \frac { 2 }{ 10 } -\frac { 3 }{ 10 } \quad =\frac { -1 }{ 10 } $
As we see that Y and Z are gaining due to change in ratios but X has sacrifised
Y's gain$=Rs54,000\times \frac { 2 }{ 10 } \quad =Rs10,800$
Z's gain$=Rs54,000\times \frac { 1 }{ 10 } \quad =Rs5,400$
X's sacrifise$=Rs54,000\times \frac { 3 }{ 10 } \quad =Rs16,200$
Journal entry for adjustement 
$Gain\ \quad To\quad Sacrifise$
Substitute values in above equation
$Y's\quad capital\quad a/c\quad Dr\quad Rs10,800\ Z's\quad capital\quad a/c\quad Dr\quad Rs5,400\ \quad \quad To\quad X's\quad capital\quad a/c\quad Rs16,200$
Hence, Y is debited with $Rs10,800$ along with Z as $Rs5,400$ but X is credited with $Rs16,200$
