Ah, we had to sort this very thing when my uncle passed, and the accountant said to calculate the profit till his last day and give his share. But in our Khasi way, we simply took the whole year's profit and gave his widow a full share, because how can you measure a life's contribution in months? My mother said, "When the tree falls, do we count only the branches that grew this season?" So we did it with the heart, not just the ledger.
