What to Focus On

  • Any change in the partnership agreement, if the firm continues, means reconstitution.
  • Admission of a partner requires consent of all existing partners, subject to contract.
  • The incoming partner is not liable for past acts of the firm.
  • Admission of a new partner
  • Change in profit sharing ratio
  • Retirement of a partner
  • New profit sharing ratio applies to all partners, including the incoming partner.
  • Formula: New share = Old share - Sacrifice share.
  • If only the new partner’s share is given, old partners share the remainder in old ratio.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A new partner automatically shares in all past profits, losses, reserves, and goodwill already in the books.

Goodwill already appearing in the books should be left untouched when a new partner is admitted.

If a partner sacrifices nothing, he should still get a share of the new partner's goodwill.
