Solution

The purpose of calculating the sacrificing ratio is to determine how much of their share existing partners are giving up in favor of a new partner. It helps in:

  • Adjusting goodwill: So the new partner can compensate the existing partners for the share they are sacrificing.
  • Distributing future profits: Based on the new profit-sharing arrangement after admission of the new partner.
