A, B and C are partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of . D is admitted into the firm for share in profits, which he gets from B. The total capital of the firm is agreed upon as and D is to bring in cash equivalent to of this amount as his capital. The capitals of other partners are also to be adjusted in the ratio of their respective shares in profits. The capitals of A, B and C after all adjustments, are , and respectively. Calculate the new capital of A

  1. A
    \text{Rs. } 45000
  2. B
    \text{Rs. } 25000
  3. C
    \text{Rs. } 35000
  4. D
    \text{Rs. } 20000

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

To trace the new individual capital values, we must map out the new profit sharing ratio among all the partners.Old Shares: , , D is admitted for share.D acquires his share entirely by taking from B and the balance from other partners or via subtraction from Old shares. Let's look at the breakdown:

Given that he takes from B, the remaining amount he acquires from A (implied or through standard balance computation since C's share is untouched or derived dynamically). Let's see the simpler structured approach based on the total capital distribution:The total capital of the firm is pre-fixed at .Let's figure out the operational new shares:D's share = Remaining share for A, B, and C combined = Let's check the structural new ratio for A under standard adjustment assumptions (where A and C continue their relative proportions, except for B's direct sacrifice of ):B's new share = D's share = Total remaining share for A and C = Dividing between A and C in their relative original proportion ():A's share = C's share = Let's review the standardized question alignment where the total remaining group capital () is divided among old partners matching their standard baseline layout or revised configuration:Alternatively, following standard textbook practice patterns where A's final share calculates out to or relative ratio yields:

With a simplified share of under common conditions:
