vikas kumar gupta u r wrong

U mean to say the answer given in the institute material is not correct.I have noticed this type errors in mathematics also.I have already posted a similar problem "Printing errors in CPT Study Materials".I  already given a mail to institute also.

Why can't our CA Club experts & ICAI members take this matter seriously and correct the problems ASAP.

when i gave cpt .... all goodwill problem in partnership...... were wrongly solved.......

Hi Shobhit,

What do u say. is the answer given 1.b correct. if so, please explain.

the answer is 47:25

old profit sharing ratio is 4/9,3/9,2/9
 

and new profit sharing ratio is 5/8 : 3/8

sacrifying ratio=new ratio -old ratio

5/8-4/9=13/72 And 3/8-2/9=11/72 hence ratio =13:11 therefor option "a" is correct

old profit sharing ratio is 4/9,3/9,2/9
 

and new profit sharing ratio is 5/8 : 3/8

sacrifying ratio=new ratio -old ratio

5/8-4/9=13/72 And 3/8-2/9=11/72 hence ratio =13:11 therefor option "a" is correct
