1. Calculation of Gaining Ratio
Gaining Share = New Share - Old Share
Deepa's Gaining Share = `(2)/(5)-(5)/(10)=(4-5)/(10)=-(1)/(10)=(1)/(10)` i.e., SACRIFICE.
Shilpa's Gaining Share = `(3)/(5)-(2)/(10)=(6-2)/(10)=(4)/(10)`i.e., Gain
Hence, Shilpa will compensate both Neeru (retiring PARTNER) and Deepa (continuing partner who has sacrificed) to the extent of their sacrifice worked out as FOLLOWS:
Deepa's Sacrifice = Goodwill of the firm `xx` Sacrificing Share
`"=Rs. 1,20,000"xx(1)/(10)=Rs. 12,000`
Neeru's (Retiring Partner's Sacrifice) = Rs. `1,20,000 xx (3)/(10)` = Rs. 36,000.
