Explanation / Answer

Old Partnes capital before admission is $75,000

C is added for 1/3 rd share, old partners share of profits is 60 : 40 = 3: 2

C brings $150,000

As per bonus method

Total capital of the firm is $75,000+$150,000 = $225,000

C's share after admission is 225,000*1/3 = 75000

So, additional (150,000-75000) 75000 will be bomus added to old partners in 3:2 ratio i.e A - 45000, B - 30000

debit cash 150000

Credit A capital account 45000

credit B capital account 30000

Credit C capital account 75000
