Question
On dissolution, A’s capital = ₹50,000, B’s capital
= ₹30,000. Cash realised = ₹60,000. Creditors = ₹20,000. Loss on realisation is shared equally. How much will A receive finally?Solution
Cash = 60,000 – Creditors 20,000 = 40,000. Total capital = 80,000 → Loss = 40,000. Share of loss = 20,000 each. Final capitals: A = 30,000, B = 10,000. Hence A receives 30,000 but cash available = 40,000 distributed = A gets 25,000, B gets 15,000.
