Kanika’s share=1,40,000×2/4=70,000 (to be borne by gaining partners in gaining ratio)
Note: Since no information is given about the share of gain, it is assumed that the old partners are gaining in their old profit sharing ratio.

Working Notes:
WN1: Calculation of G’s Share of Goodwill
G’s share=Firm’s Goodwill×G’s Profit Share
G’s share=90,000×5/10=45,000 (to be borne by gaining partners in gaining ratio)
WN2: Calculation of Gaining Ratio
Gaining Ratio = New Ratio − Old Ratio
N’s gain=2/5−2/10=2/10
S’s gain=3/5−3/10=3/10Gaining Ratio=2:3
N’s share=45,000×2/5=18,000
S’s share=45,000×3/5=27,000
WN2: Calculation of Excess/Deficit Provision for Doubtful Debts
Required Provision @5%=1,35,000−6,000×5÷100=6,450
Existing Provision after writing bad-debts= 9,000
Excess Provision to be written back=2,550=9,000−6,450
WN3: Calculation of G’s Loan Balance
Amount due to G = Opening Capital + Credits – Debits
= 4,50,000 + (45,000 + 45,000) – (37,500 + 81,225)
= ₹ 4,21,275
