28 May 2012 SIR THIS Q WAS ASKED IN CPT JUNE 2010 EXAM AND THE ANSWER IS GIVEN AS

A`s CAPITAL A/C......Dr 1200
B`s CAPITAL A/C......Dr 1200
TO C`s CAPITAL A/C 2400.


28 May 2012 yes thats right....

Profit had to be shared equally but it has been shared in the ratio of 2:2:1, i.e.,
Profit sharing should have been:
A-6000
B-6000
C-6000

But shared as:
A-7200
B-7200
C-3600

Accordingly the adjustment entry will be:

A 1200 (72000-6000)....Dr
B 1200 (7200-6000).....Dr
To C 2400 (3600-6000)

29 May 2012 thanks sir.
