Correct Answer: Debited by Rs 1,00,000


Solution : Answer = Debited by Rs 1,00,000

Total Goodwill of the firm was valued at = 6,00,000
= 6,00,000 × 5/12
= 50,000 × 5 = 2,50,000

G.Ratio = N.R. - O. R.

A= $\frac{1}{3}- \frac{5}{12} = \frac{12-15}{36} = \frac{-3}{36}\times 6,00,000 = 50,000$

C = $\frac{1}{3}- \frac{2}{12} = \frac{12-6}{36} = \frac{6}{36}\times 6,00,000 = 10,000$

D = $\frac{1}{3}- \frac{2}{12} = \frac{12-6}{36} = \frac{6}{36}\times 6,00,000 = 10,000$

D's Capital Account will be Debited = 1,00,000.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
