Solution

Particulars L.F. Amount
Dr. (₹)
Amount
Cr. (₹)
Avya’s Capital A/c    ...Dr.   10,000 -
    To Kavya’s Capital A/c   - 10,000

Explanation:

Avya’s Gain = `4/9 - 1/3 = 4/9 - 3/9 = 1/9`

Kavya’s sacrifice = `1/3 - 2/9 = 3/9 - 2/9 = 1/9`

Thus the sacrificing value of goodwill is `1/9 xx ₹ 90,000` = ₹ 10,000 which will be transferred from Avya (Gaining Partner) to kavya (Sacrificing Partner)

Thus, sacrificing value of goodwill is ₹ 10,000.
