here the psr changed from 5:4:3 to 3:4:4 not because of admission or retirement of a partner....due to A's ill health his contribution is less in the business activities....that is why they want to reopen the profit and loss account and want to share in a new ratio.....when it comes to goodwill raise the goodwill in 5:4:3 and writeoff in 3 : 2

There are two aspects. First to eliminate goodwill existing in balance sheet. Basically to bring it down to 0. This will happen in PSR. For fresh goodwill, you can pass it using SR.

Yes sir but in this sum there is revision of PSR on retirement so I asked what PSR to use?
