Solution:

Assuming that John has A number of apples and Jacobs has B number of apples.

As per the question,
A + 1 = B - 1
=> B - A = 2 ------ (p)

Also, A - 1 = (B + 1) / 2
=> 2A - B = 3 ------ (q)

Solving (p) and (q)
A = 5 and B = 7

Therefore, A has 5 chocolates and B has 7 chocolates right now.
