What to Focus On

  • Retirement means discontinuing as a partner in the firm.
  • The firm continues, but the old partnership ends.
  • Retirement results in reconstitution of the firm.
  • New share = old share + acquired gaining share.
  • Gaining ratio = new ratio - old ratio.
  • If no new ratio is given, gaining ratio equals old ratio.
  • Goodwill is compensated to the retiring partner.
  • Only purchased goodwill can be recorded.
  • Goodwill account is not raised at retirement.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Retirement means the firm ends completely.

The retiring partner shares only future profits, not revaluation profit or loss.

Goodwill can be raised in the books at retirement like a regular asset.
