Calculation of New Ratio:

Old Ratio of Raj and Dev is 3:2

Share given to New partner Manoj is 1/5.

We know that,

New Ratio = (Balance Ratio of 1) × Old Ratio.

Raj's New Ratio = (1 – 1/5 )× 3/5 = 12/25

Dev's New Ratio = (1 – 1/5) × 2/5 = 8/25

And Manoj's New Ratio = (1/5 ) × (5/5) {To Make Base 25}


∴ Manoj's New Ratio = 5/25


∴ New ratio of Raj, Dev and Manoj is (12/25) :(8/25): (5/25)

i.e. 12:8:5.


Now, Capital balance of all partners will be adjusted in their new profit sharing ratio through bank account as follows:

Total Capital of the Firm = New partner's Capital × Reciprocal of new partner's profit sharing ratio.

∴ Total Capital of the Firm = 1,00,000 × (5/1) = Rs. 5,00,000

Now, Raj's New Capital = 5,00,000 × (12/25)  = Rs. 2,40,000

Dev's New Capital = 5,00,000 × (8/25) = Rs. 1,60,000

We Know the New Capital of Manoj  and that is Rs. 1,00,000.


∴ New capital of Raj, Dev and Manoj are Rs. 2,40,000, Rs. 1,.60,000 and Rs. 1,00,000 respectively.
