Calculating New Profit-Sharing Ratio After Jyoti's Admission 

This document outlines the steps to determine the new profit-sharing ratio among Anshu, Nitu, and Jyoti after Jyoti's admission into the partnership.

  1. Original Profit Sharing Ratio:

Anshu and Nitu initially share profits in a 3:2 ratio. This ratio represents Anshu’s and Nitu’s shares of the entire partnership (equivalent to $\frac{10}{10}$ or 1) before Jyoti’s admission.

Anshu's original share: $\frac{3}{5}$

Nitu's original share: $\frac{2}{5}$

  1. Calculating the Shares Transferred to Jyoti:

Jyoti’s share in the partnership is $\frac{3}{10}$, which she acquired as follows:

  • $\frac{2}{10}$ from Anshu
  • $\frac{1}{10}$ from Nitu
  1. Calculating Anshu and Nitu’s New Shares:
    • Anshu’s New Share:

Anshu’s New Share = Anshu’s Original Share − Share Given to Jyoti

Anshu's New Share = $\frac{3}{5} - \frac{2}{10} = \frac{6}{10} - \frac{2}{10} = \frac{4}{10}$

  • Nitu’s New Share:

Nitu’s New Share = Nitu’s Original Share − Share Given to Jyoti

Nitu's New Share = $\frac{2}{5} - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{4}{10} - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{3}{10}$

  • Jyoti's Share:

Jyoti’s share remains $\frac{3}{10}$ as given.

  1. New Profit Sharing Ratio:

The new profit-sharing ratio for Anshu, Nitu, and Jyoti is 4:3:3.

Conclusion:

The new profit-sharing ratio among Anshu, Nitu, and Jyoti is 4:3:3.
