calculation of Investment for revaluvation
investment given 30,000
investment reduce by 10% i.e 30,000 x 10 % = 3,000 & investment fluctuatiom reserve = 2,000 so investment in
revaluation 1,000.
Old ratio between Ram & Shyam & Hari = 1:1:1
New ratio = 2:1.
Gaining ratio = New ratio - Old ratio
Ram's share = 2/3 -1/3 = 1/3
Shyam's share = 1/3 -1/3 = 0
So the entry will be

When shares are forfeited due to non-payment of calls, the Share Capital A/C is debited for the called-up amount, while Share Forfeiture A/C is credited with paid amounts, including premiums. Upon reissue at a discount, the discount is adjusted through the Share Forfeiture A/C to cover the loss from discounted reissue, minimizing profit or loss from reissue. An excess in forfeiture account over the discount is adjusted to the Capital Reserve, thus impacting the company's reserves .
The Profit & Loss Appropriation Account is used to allocate the net profit of the firm among the partners as per the partnership agreement. It serves to adjust for any commissions, salaries, or interest due to partners before the remaining profit is distributed according to the agreed profit-sharing ratio. This ensures that any entitlements or guarantees, like Yogesh's minimum profit guarantee, are fulfilled before the distribution of residual profits .
When a partner withdraws from a firm and their capital is transferred to a loan account, the partnership dissolves their share of capital from the capital account and re-establishes it as a liability in the form of a loan payable to that partner. This involves debiting the partner’s capital account and crediting a new loan account with the same amount, thereby converting the partner’s equity into a debt obligation that the firm owes .
The gain on reissue of shares, after they are forfeited and reissued at a price different from their original issue price, impacts the company's capital reserve. The amount credited to the Share Forfeiture Account represents the net gain which, after accounting for total forfeiture and reissue prices, is then transferred to the Capital Reserve. For example, with a gain of ₹42,000 transferred from the Share Forfeiture Account, it increases the capital reserve by that amount .
The revaluation account is categorized as a nominal account in accounting. It is opened by a firm to record the gains and losses arising from the revaluation of assets and the reassessment of liabilities when a firm is reconstituted. The result of this account is either a profit or a loss, which is why it is considered a nominal account .
In a partnership firm, if a partner is guaranteed a minimum profit, any shortfall in the guaranteed profit must be compensated by the other partners. For instance, if partner B is guaranteed a minimum of ₹1,50,000 profit but incurs a loss of ₹30,000, B must be compensated by debiting A's and C's capital accounts for the difference, in this case, ₹1,80,000 total, shared in an agreed ratio . This ensures B receives the guaranteed minimum profit while proportionally impacting the other partners' capital accounts.
The final balances of a partner's capital account are determined by accounting for the initial balance, any additional capital contributions, share of profits or losses, drawings, interest on capital, and any agreements like guaranteed profits. For instance, after adjustments for losses on revaluation and transfer of balances due to changes in partnership structure, partners' capital accounts reflect revised balances determined by these comprehensive financial movements .
When a partner brings in goodwill in cash, their capital account is credited with the value of the goodwill brought in. This transaction recognizes the new partner's contribution to the firm's overall value, increasing their stake and adjusting the capital accounts of existing partners accordingly based on the sacrifice ratio, if applicable. For instance, if C brings in ₹90,000 as their share of goodwill, the amount is divided between A and B in the sacrificing ratio .
Interest on drawings when a fixed amount is drawn at the end of every month is calculated by first determining the average time period for which the money is utilized during the year. The average period is found by dividing the total months of drawings by two (e.g., 11 + 0 months divided by 2 results in 5.5 months). The interest is then computed using this average period, the total amount of drawings, and the applicable interest rate .
To determine the purchase consideration when acquiring a business through issued shares, the total purchase cost is calculated by subtracting any components like promissory notes from the purchase price to find the net amount covered by shares. The issue price of shares (nominal value plus premium) and the total purchase consideration are used to calculate the number of shares required to fulfill the obligation, ensuring the financial statement reflects both the valuation and the financing mechanism .
