answer is D, as we first credit good will on old ratio
X : $16,500
Y : $16,500

Revaluation profit again on credit on old ratio due to being revalued more than the book value:
X : $30,000
Y : $30,000

so X will get $46,500 and Y too where as Z will get nthin

we also debit the partner account but that option is not given, this means that the examiner is asking the balance of the credit side

Q15 -A . I have like no idea how to do questions related to impairment loss and stuff.
http://www.xtremepapers.com/papers/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Accounting (9706)/9706_w11_qp_31.pdf

IAS 36: Impairment of Assets
o It applies to all assets except inventories.
o An impairment loss of an asset is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.
o An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss account for assets carried at cost and treated as a revaluation decrease for assets carried at revalued amounts.
o Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.
o Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life.
