Pammy’s Capital A/c Dr.

20,000

Sunny’s Capital A/c Dr.

10,000

To Goodwill A/c

60,000

(Existing goodwill written-off in old ratio)

Hanny’s Capital A/c Dr.

14,000

Sunny’s Capital A/c Dr.

14,000

To Pammy’s Capital A/c

28,000

(Pammy’s share of goodwill adjusted to Hanny’s and Sunny’s capital account in the extent of their gain)

Working Notes:

(i) Pammy’s share of current value of goodwill 1/3 of Rs. 84,000

= 84,000 X 1/3 = Rs. 28,000

(ii) Gaining ratio = New share – Old share

Hanny’s gaining share = 2/3 – 3/6 = 1/6

Sunny’s gaining ratio = 1/3 – 1/6 = 1/6

This gaining ratio of Hanny and Sunny is 1/6: 1/6 = 1: 1
