Partnership

First step is to calculate Availability of cash

Total capital of firm before retirement

Total capital of firm before retirement = 103,680+87,840+26,880 

Total capital of firm before retirement=218,400

Availability of cash = 9,600-7,200

Availability of cash = 2,400

Second step is to calculate New capital of Sushil and Samir

New capital of Sushil and Samir=218,400-2,400

New capital of Sushil and Samir =216,000

Third step is to calculate Amount Sushil bring

Sushil's new capital = 216,000×3/5

Sushil's new capital =129,600

Amount Sushil bring

Existing capital of Sushil  103,680

Amount = 129,600−103,680

Amount=25,920

Fourth step is to calculate Amount Samir bring

Samir's new capital = 216,000×2/5

Samir's new capital =86,400

Amount Samir bring

Existing capital of Samir = 26,880

Amount= 86,400−26,880

Amount=59,520  

Therefore the amount to be paid or to be brought in by the continuing partners assuming that a minimum Cash and Bank balance of ` 7,200 was to be maintained and pass the necessary Journal entries is: Sushil's  25,920, Samir's 59,520  .
