Balance sheet of Akash Ltd.
As at (As per revised schedule VI)
Values are:

Answer 11.
Calculation of Hidden Goodwill:
Kishore’s share = 1/4
Kishore’s capital = 2,00,000
Total capital of the new firm = 2,00,000 x 4 = 8,00,000
Existing capital of Karan, Varun and Kishore = 2,00,000 + 3,00,000 + 2,00,000 = Rs 7,00,000
Goodwill of the firm = 8,00,000 – 7,00,000 = 1,00,000
Thus, Kishore’s share of goodwill = 1/4 x 1,00,000 = Rs 25,000
Calculation of new profit sharing ratio:
Karan’s new share = 1/3
Varun’s new share = 2/3 – 1/4 = 5/12
Kishore’s share = 1/4 i.e., 3/12
New ratio = 4:5:3
