This account has two parts and the first part is similar to the Revaluation A/c Profit (loss) calculated is credited (debited) to old partners in their old profit sharing ratio. In the second part the entries made in the first part are reversed and Profit (loss) of first part turns into loss (profit) ( in the second part.
