Working Notes:

WN 1 Calculation of Interest on Gunvant’s Capital

Interest on Capital = `15000 xx 12/100 xx 6/12 = 900`

WN 2 Calculation of Gunvant’s share of profits

Profit of last financial year (2013-14) = 24,000

Gunvant's share in profits = `24000 xx 1/4 xx 6/12 = 3000`

WN 3 Adjustment of Goodwill

Average Profit = `(18,000+21,000+24,000)/3 = 21000`

Goodwill of the firm = `21000 xx 2 = 42000`

Gunvant's Share of Goodwill = `42000 xx  1/4 = 10500`

Anant will pay = `10500 xx 2/5 = 7000`

Sampat will pay = `10500 xx 1/3 = 3500`

WN 4 Calculation of Gunvant’s Share in Reserve Fund

Gunvant's Share in General Reserve = `9600 xx 1/4 = 2400`

Note: Since, here no information is given regarding the share acquired by Anant and Sampat, therefore, their gaining ratio is same as their new profit sharing ratio i.e. 2:1
