Calculate the value of goodwill
| Super Profit | = | Actual average Profit- Normal Profit |
| Actual average Profit | = | Average Profit + or -Adjustments (if any) |
| = | 4,00,000- 0 (-) | |
| = | 4,00,000 |
| Normal Profit | = | Capital Employed | X | Normal Rate of Return |
| 100 |
| = | 15,00,000 | X | 15 |
| 100 | |||
| = | 2,25,000 |
| Capital Employed | = | Total Assets - Fictitious Assets-Current Liabilities |
| = | 19,50,000-50,000-4,00,000 | |
| = | 15,00,000 | |
| Super Profit | = | 4,00,000 - 2,25,000 |
| = | 1,75,000 |
Number of years’ purchase = 4
| Goodwill | = | Super Profit X number of years of purchase |
| Goodwill | = | 1,75,000 X 4 |
| Goodwill | = | 7,00,000 |
