Step-by-Step AI Explanation

Q2 mcq 1 mark
The old profit sharing ratio among Ramesh, Sathish and Ravish were 2:2:1. The new profit sharing ratio after Sathish's retirement is 3:2. The gain ratio of continuing partners is
a.
3 : 2
b.
2 : 1
c.
1 : 2 Correct Answer
d.
1 : 1
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
The gain ratio is calculated as New Ratio - Old Ratio. Old ratio of Ramesh and Ravish was 2:2:1 (Ramesh=2/5, Ravish=1/5). After Sathish retires, the new ratio is 3:2 (Ramesh=3/5, Ravish=2/5). Gain of Ramesh = $3/5 - 2/5 = 1/5$. Gain of Ravish = $2/5 - 1/5 = 1/5$. Therefore, the gain ratio is 1:1. Wait, calculating again: The old ratio was 2:2:1. Ramesh: 2/5, Sathish: 2/5, Ravish: 1/5. New ratio: 3:2 (3/5 and 2/5). Ramesh's Gain: $3/5 - 2/5 = 1/5$. Ravish's Gain: $2/5 - 1/5 = 1/5$. The ratio is 1:1. However, checking the provided options, if the new ratio is 3:2, the gain ratio is 1:1. Given the options provided, there might be a typo in the question's target options, but mathematically it is 1:1.

a.
20%
b.
25% Correct Answer
c.
33%
d.
50%
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
Percentage change = $\frac{\text{New Value} - \text{Old Value}}{\text{Old Value}} \times 100$. Calculation: $\frac{5,00,000 - 4,00,000}{4,00,000} \times 100 = \frac{1,00,000}{4,00,000} \times 100 = 25\%$.
