Forward Contract is not at all related to clearing & forwarding contract.

Forward Contract takes place in case of purchase & sale of Shares & foreign currency.

Mr. Dinesh is absolutely right. Forward contracts are made for sale/purchase anything i.e. shares, commodities, currency and interest rates ans so on on some future date at predetermined price. But these contracts are not conducted on any organised exchanges.

Sursh’s Capital A/c 24810	Sundry Debtors 24150

Total 89130	Total 89130

Working Notes:

Capital of the firm at the time of retirement of Ram is Rs.103580 (Rs.48940 of Ram and Rs.54640 of Rahim).
Since the new partners Rahim and Suresh do not want to show goodwill in books, the capital of the new firm will reduce by Rs.20000/-
They want to keep Rs.7350 with them, this means that they want to utilize Rs9150 (16500-7350) towards making payment to Ram, hence want to reduce the capital of new firm by another Rs.9150. So the capital of new firm will be Rs.74430 (103580-20000-9150) shared by Rahim and Suresh in the ratio 3:1 (49620 and 24810).
Ram will gift Suresh Rs.24810 for capital and Rs.6667 for goodwill.
