Sainath enterprises is a partnership business with Amar, Akbar and Anthony as partners engaged in the production and sales of home appliances. Their capital contributions were Rs 50,00,000, Rs 50,00,000 and Rs 80,00,000 respectively with the profit sharing ratio of 5:5:8. As they are now looking forward to expanding their business it was decided that they would bring in sufficient cash to double the respective capitals. This was duly followed by Amar and Akbar but due to unavoidable reasons Anthony could not do so and ultimately it was agreed that to bridge the shortfall in the required capital a new partner should be admitted who would bring in the amount that Anthony could not bring and that partner would get share of profits equal to half of Anthony’s shares which would be sacrificed by Anthony only. Consequent to this agreement, Mahesh was admitted and he bought in the required capital and Rs 30,00,000 as premium for goodwill. Based on the above information you are required to answer the following questions:1.
