Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Calculate Realised Values
- Machinery taken over by creditors – No cash received or paid.
- Investments taken over by Neeraj – ₹5,00,000 (Dr. Realisation A/c, Cr. Neeraj's Capital A/c)
- Debtors:
- Total = ₹11,00,000
- Less: Untraceable = ₹1,00,000
- Remaining = ₹10,00,000 realised @ 90% = ₹9,00,000
- Stock: 50% of ₹2,00,000 = ₹1,00,000 (taken over by Madhur)
- Realisation Expenses = ₹1,00,000 (paid by Madhur, debited to Realisation A/c)
Step 2: Realisation Account
| Particulars | Amount (₹) | Particulars | Amount (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| To Machinery A/c | 7,00,000 | By Creditors (assets taken over) | 6,00,000 |
| To Investments A/c | 4,00,000 | By Neeraj's Capital A/c (Investments) | 5,00,000 |
| To Debtors A/c | 11,00,000 | By Bank A/c (Debtors realised) | 9,00,000 |
| To Stock A/c | 2,00,000 | By Madhur's Capital A/c (Stock) | 1,00,000 |
| To Bank A/c (Expenses) | 1,00,000 | ||
| Total | 25,00,000 | Total | 21,00,000 |
Loss on Realisation = ₹4,00,000
Distribution of Loss in 3:2 ratio:
- Madhur = (3/5) × ₹4,00,000 = ₹2,40,000
- Neeraj = (2/5) × ₹4,00,000 = ₹1,60,000
Final Answer: Realisation loss of ₹4,00,000 shared between Madhur (₹2,40,000) and Neeraj (₹1,60,000).
