What to Focus On

  • Reconstitution ends the old partnership but the firm continues to exist.
  • Any change in the partnership agreement amounts to reconstitution.
  • There are five main occasions for reconstitution of a firm.

  • A new partner can be admitted only with the consent of all existing partners.
  • New partner is not liable for any act done before his admission.
  • New partner acquires two rights: share in profits and share in assets.

  • New Profit Sharing Ratio determines how all partners (old + new) divide future profits.
  • New Share = Old Share - Sacrifice Share.
  • If only new partner's share is given, old partners share the remaining profit in their old ratio.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Existing goodwill in the balance sheet is given to the new partner as part of firm assets
