Working Notes: 

1) Calculation of deceased Veena’s share of goodwill

Average Profit for the last three years = `(1,20,000 + 90,000 + 1,50,000)/3`
= ₹ 1,20,000
Goodwill of the firm = Average Profits of the last three years × Number of Years’ Purchase
= ₹ (1,20,000 × 2) = ₹ 2,40,000
Veena’s share of goodwill = ₹ (2,40,000 × 1/3) = ₹ 80,000
Gaining Ratio among the partners will be same as old ratio = 1 : 1

2) Calculation of Veena’s Share of Profit

Average Profits of last three years = ₹ 1,20,000
Profits till the date of death = ₹ (1,20,000 × 3/12) = ₹ 30,000
Veena’s Share of Profits = ₹ (30,000 × 1/3) = ₹ 10,000
