Reconstitution of a Partnership Firm –, Retirement/Death of a Partner, , LEARNING OBJECTIVES, After studying this chapter, you will be able to:, • calculate new profit, sharing ratio and gaining, ratio of the remaining, partners, after, the, retirement/death of a, partner;, • describe the accounting, treatment of goodwill in, the event of retirement/, death of a partner;, • make the necessary entries, in respect of unrecorded, assets and liabilities;, • make necessary adjustment for accumulated, profits or losses;, • ascertain the retiring/, deceased partner claim, against the firm and, explain the mode of its, settlement;, • prepare the retiring, partner’s loan account, if, required; and, • prepare the deceased, partner’s executor’s, account in the case of, death of a partner and the, balance sheet of a, reconstituted firm., , 4, , Y, , ou have learnt that retirement or death of a, partner also leads to reconstitution of a, partnership firm. On the retirement or death of a, partner, the existing partnership deed comes to an, end, and in its place, a new partnership deed needs, to be framed whereby, the remaining partners, continue to do their business on changed terms and, conditions. There is not much difference in the, accounting treatment at the time of retirement or in, the event of death. In both the cases, we are required, to determine the sum due to the retiring partner (in, case of retirement) and to the legal representatives, (in case of deceased partner) after making necessary, adjustments in respect of goodwill, revaluation of a, assets and liabilities and transfer of accumulated, profits and losses. In addition, we may also have to, compute the new profit sharing’s ratio among the, remaining partners and so also their gaining ratio,, This covers all these aspects in detail., 4.1 Ascertaining the Amount Due to Retiring/, Deceased Partner, The sum due to the retiring partner (in case of, retirement) and to the legal representatives/, executors (in case of death) includes:, (i) credit balance of his capital account;, (ii) credit balance of his current account (if any);, (iii) his share of goodwill;, (iv) his share of accumulated profits (reserves);, (v) his share in the gain of revaluation of assets, and liabilities;, , 2021-22

Ascertainment of new profit sharing ratio and gaining ratio;, 2. Treatment of goodwill;, 3. Revaluation of assets and liabilities;, 4. Adjustment in respect of unrecorded assets and liabilities;, 5. Distribution of accumulated profits and losses;, 6. Ascertainment of share of profit or loss up to the date of retirement/death;, 7. Adjustment of capital, if required;, 8. Settlement of the amounts due to retired/deceased partner;, 4.2 New Profit Sharing Ratio, New profit sharing ratio is the ratio in which the remaining partners will share, future profits after the retirement or death of any partner. The new share of each, of the remaining partner will consist of his own share in the firm plus the share, acquired from the retiring /deceased partner., Consider the following situations :, (a) normally, the continuing partners acquire the share of retiring or deceased, partners in the old profit sharing ratio, and there is no need to compute the, new profit sharing ratio among them, as it will be same as the old profit, sharing ratio among them. In fact, in the absence of any information regarding, profit sharing ratio in which the remaining partners acquire the share of, retiring/deceased partner, it is assumed that they will acquire it in the old, profit sharing ratio and so share the future profits in their old ratio. For, example, Asha, Deepti and Nisha are partners in a firm sharing profits and, losses in the ratio of 3:2:1. If Deepti retires, the new profit sharing ratio, between Asha and Nisha will be 3:1, unless they decide otherwise., (b) The continuing partners may acquire the share in the profits of the, retiring/deceased partner in a proportion other than their old ratio, In that, case, there is need to compute the new profit sharing ratio among them., For example: Naveen, Suresh and Tarun are partners sharing profits and, losses in the ratio of 5:3:2. Suresh retires from the firm and his share was, , 2021-22

Retirement/Death of a Partner, , 169, , required by Naveen and Tarun in the ratio 2:1. In such a case, the new, share of profit will be calculated as follows:, New share of Continuing Partner = Old Share + Acquired share from, the Outgoing Partner, Gaining Ratio 2 : 1, Share acquired by Naveen, , Share acquired by Tarun, , =, , 2, 3, of, 3, 10, , =, , 2, 3, 2, ×, =, 3, 10, 10, , =, , 1, 3, of, 3, 10, , =, , 1, 3, 1, ×, =, 3, 10, 10, , Share of Naveen, , =, , Share of Tarun, , =, , 5, 10, 2, 10, , +, , +, , 2, 10, 1, 10, , =, , 7, 10, , =, , 3, 10, , Thus, the new profit sharing ratio of Naveen and Tarun will be = 7 : 3., (c) The contributing partners may agree on a specified new profit sharing, ratio: In that case the ratio so specified will be the new profit sharing ratio., 4.3 Gaining Ratio, The ratio in which the continuing partners have acquired the share from the, retiring/deceased partner is called the gaining ratio. Normally, the continuing, partners acquire the share of retiring/deceased partner in their old profit sharing, ratio, In that case, the gaining ratio of the remaining partners will be the same, as their old profit sharing ratio among them and there is no need to compute the, gaining ratio, Alternatively, proportion in which they acquire the share of the, retiring/deceased partner may be duly spacified. In that case, again, there is no, need to calculate the gaining ratio as it will be the ratio in which they have, acquired the share of profit from the retiring deceased partner. The problem of, calculating gaining ratio arises primarily when the new profit sharing ratio of, the continuing partners is specified. In such a situation, the gaining ratio should, be calculated by, deducting the old share of each continuing partners from his, new share i.e., new profit share minus old profit share, i.e., new profit share, minus old profit share. For example, Amit, Dinesh and Gagan are partners, sharing profits in the ratio of 5:3:2., Dinesh retires. Amit and Gagan decide to share the profits of the new firm in, the ratio of 3:2. The gaining ratio will be calculated as follows :, , 2021-22

If Madhu retires, new profit sharing Ratio between Neha and Tina will be, Neha : Tina = 3:2 and Gaining Ratio of Neha and Tina =3:2, 2. If Neha retires new profit sharing Ratio between Madhu and Tina will be, Madhu : Tina = 5:2, Gaining Ratio of Madhu and Tina = 5:2, 3. If Tina retires, new profit sharing ratio between Madhu and Neha will be:, Madhu : Neha = 5:3, Gaining ratio of Madhu and Neha = 5:3, , Illustration 2, Alka, Harpreet and Shreya are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 3:2:1.

Similarly, there may be certain, liabilities which have been shown at a value different from the obligation to be, met by the firm. Not only that, there may be some unrecorded assets and liabilities, which need to be brought into books.

The retiring/deceased partner is entitled to his/her share, in the accumulated profits and is also liable to share the accumulated losses, if, any.

But, there can be a case where a partner decides to retire in the middle of the year. In, such a case the claim shall include share of profit or loss, interest on capital,, interest on drawings if any, from the date of last balance sheet to the date of, retirement. Here, the main problem relates to the calculation of profit for the, intervening period, i.e., the period from the date of last balance sheet and the date, of retirement. Let us understand by way of example:, Maira, Shabnam and Vipul were partners in a firm sharing profits in the, ratio of 5:4:1 profits for the year ending on March 31, 2019 was Rs. 1,00,000., Vipul decides to retire on June 30, 2019.

In the absence of any agreement, Section 37 of the Indian Partnership, Act, 1932 is applicable, which states that the outgoing partner has an option to, receive either interest @ 6% p.a. till the date of payment or such share of profits, which has been earned with his/her money (i.e., based on capital ratio). Hence,, the total amount due to the retiring partner which is ascertained after all, adjustments have been made is to be paid immediately to the retiring partner., In case the firm is not in a position to make the payment immediately, the amount, due is transferred to the retiring Partner’s Loan Account, and as and when the, amount is paid it is debited to his account.
