I have never used a current and Goodwill A/C when dealing with the retirement of a partner, and am in need of desperate help for my assignment. I am confident when using solely the Capital and Goodwill A/C's however he usage of the Current A/C how thrown me off. The assignment Q is as follows.

T,D & F have been in a partnership.But on 31 DEC 2008 D is retiring. The Cr balances on the partners accounts are as follows:

Capital:

T - £84,000   D - £62,000   F - £37,000

Current

T - £4,500  D - £ 1,300  F - £6,200

Before retirement profits were shared 3:2:1 (T,D,F). After retirement of D profits will be shared between T:F = 2:1. Goodwill is valued at £54,000. The agreement is that D will be paid£10,000 at the date of retirement and the remainder due to her will take the form of a loan to the partnership. 
Writ up the partners Capital and Current accounts to reflect retirement.
