What to Focus On

  • Retirement means a partner leaves the firm, but the business continues with the remaining partners.
  • The partnership deed usually outlines the terms of retirement.
  • The old profit sharing ratio ends, and a new one is established among the continuing partners.

  • New Profit Sharing Ratio: The ratio in which remaining partners will share future profits.
  • Gaining Ratio: The ratio in which continuing partners gain the retiring partner’s share.
  • If not specified, the retiring partner’s share is distributed in the old ratio of remaining partners.

  • Goodwill is adjusted through capital accounts, not recorded as an asset unless purchased.
  • Retiring partner’s share of goodwill is credited to their capital account.
  • Continuing partners’ capital accounts are debited in the gaining ratio.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

When a partner retires, the new profit sharing ratio is always based on the old ratio of the remaining partners.

Goodwill is always credited to the retiring partner’s capital account in full.

Revaluation profit is shared only by the continuing partners.
