Working Notes:
WN1 Calculation of Share in Old Goodwill

Anu's share = 4,40,000 x `3/4` = 3,30,000

Bhagwan's share = 4,40,000 x `1/4` = 1,10,000

WN2 Calculation of Raja's Share of Goodwill
Raja's Share of Goodwill = Firm's Goodwill x Raja's Profit Share

= 2,50,000 x `1/5` = 50,000

WN3 Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio

Sacrificing Ratio = Old Share - New Share

Anu's = `3/4 - 2/5 = 7/20` (Sacrifice)

Bhagwan's = `1/4 - 2/5 = - 3/20` (gain)
