Solution
The new profit sharing ratio is settled first (A), since capitals are to be held in that ratio. The total capital of the firm is then determined (D), usually from the incoming partner's capital. Each old partner's required capital is worked out from it (B), and finally the surplus or shortfall to be withdrawn or brought in is found (C).
