Solution

Here, capital deficiency of ₹ 6000 is to be distributed among continuing partners in their profit and loss sharing ratio. i.e. 3:2

Share of deficiency for Vinod = 6,000 x`3 /5` = ₹ 3,600

Share of deficiency for Vijay = 6,000 ×`2/5` = ₹ 2,400

Vinod and Vijay will bear ₹ 3,600 and ₹ 2,400 of Vishal’s capital deficiency.
