Answer :

Explanation:

To adjust the balance sheet for the retirement of Suresh, we need to consider the given adjustments. Here’s the step-by-step process:

1. **Appreciate Buildings by 10%:**

- Buildings = ₹25,000 + 10% of ₹25,000 = ₹25,000 + ₹2,500 = ₹27,500

2. **Write off Creditors of ₹500:**

- Creditors = ₹40,000 - ₹500 = ₹39,500

3. **Depreciate Furniture and Stock by 15%:**

- Furniture = ₹12,000 - 15% of ₹12,000 = ₹12,000 - ₹1,800 = ₹10,200

- Stock = ₹6,000 - 15% of ₹6,000 = ₹6,000 - ₹900 = ₹5,100

4. **Revalue Investment at ₹25,000:**

- Investment = ₹25,000

5. **Goodwill of the Firm (AS 26) valued at ₹25,000:**

- Goodwill needs to be shared among partners in their profit-sharing ratio (2:2:1).

- Ramesh’s share = 2/5 of ₹25,000 = ₹10,000

- Mahesh’s share = 2/5 of ₹25,000 = ₹10,000

- Suresh’s share = 1/5 of ₹25,000 = ₹5,000

6. **Allow Outstanding Salary of ₹15,000:**

- Outstanding Salary = ₹15,000

7. **Interest on Bank Overdraft of ₹500:**

- Bank Overdraft = ₹15,000 + ₹500 = ₹15,500

8. **PDD decreased to ₹500:**

- PDD on Debtors = ₹1,000 - ₹500 = ₹500

- Debtors = ₹50,000 - ₹500 = ₹49,500

9. **Settlement to Retiring Partner (Suresh) by paying cash immediately:**

- Suresh’s final settlement will include his capital account and his share of goodwill and revaluation profit/loss.

### New Balance Sheet Adjustments:

**Assets:**

- Cash at Bank = ₹10,000 - Payment to Suresh

- Cash in Hand = ₹15,000

- Buildings = ₹27,500

- Debtors = ₹49,500

- Furniture = ₹10,200

- Stock = ₹5,100

- Investment = ₹25,000

**Liabilities:**

- Creditors = ₹39,500

- Bills Payable = ₹10,000

- General Reserve = ₹10,000

- Bank Overdraft = ₹15,500

- Outstanding Salary = ₹15,000

**Capital Accounts:**

- Ramesh’s Capital: Adjust for revaluation and goodwill

- Mahesh’s Capital: Adjust for revaluation and goodwill

- Suresh’s Capital: Settle immediately in cash

### Steps to Calculate Revaluation and Capital Adjustments:

**Revaluation Account:**

1. **Revaluation Profit/Loss:**

- Increase in Buildings: ₹2,500

- Decrease in Furniture: ₹1,800

- Decrease in Stock: ₹900

- Increase in Investment: ₹5,000

- Net Revaluation Gain: ₹2,500 + ₹5,000 - ₹1,800 - ₹900 = ₹4,800

**Revaluation Profit Share:**

- Ramesh (2/5) = ₹1,920

- Mahesh (2/5) = ₹1,920

- Suresh (1/5) = ₹960

**Final Capital Adjustments:**

- Ramesh’s Capital: ₹30,000 + ₹1,920 - ₹4,000 (goodwill to Suresh) = ₹27,920

- Mahesh’s Capital: ₹20,000 + ₹1,920 - ₹4,000 (goodwill to Suresh) = ₹17,920

- Suresh’s Capital: ₹15,000 + ₹960 + ₹5,000 (goodwill share) = ₹20,960

**Suresh’s Payment:**

- Payment to Suresh = ₹20,960

**Final Cash at Bank:**

- Cash at Bank = ₹10,000 - ₹20,960 = -₹10,960 (needs adjustment for negative balance, so additional capital or financing needed)

### Adjusted Balance Sheet:

**Assets:**

- Cash at Bank: ₹0 (assuming extra funds arranged)

- Cash in Hand: ₹15,000

- Buildings: ₹27,500

- Debtors: ₹49,500

- Furniture: ₹10,200

- Stock: ₹5,100

- Investment: ₹25,000

**Liabilities:**

- Creditors: ₹39,500

- Bills Payable: ₹10,000

- General Reserve: ₹10,000

- Bank Overdraft: ₹15,500

- Outstanding Salary: ₹15,000

**Capital Accounts:**

- Ramesh’s Capital: ₹27,920

- Mahesh’s Capital: ₹17,920

This adjusted balance sheet reflects all the necessary changes and the settlement made to Suresh.
