A firm earns an average profit of ₹3,00,000 during the last few years. The normal rate of return of the industry is 15%. The assets of the business were ₹17,00,000 and its liabilities were ₹2,00,000. Calculate the goodwill of the firm by the Capitalisation of Average Profit Method.
Capitalised Value of Profit = Average Profit × 100 / Normal Rate of Return = ₹3,00,000 × 100 / 15 = ₹20,00,000.
Capital Employed = Assets – Liabilities = ₹17,00,000 – ₹2,00,000 = ₹15,00,000.
Goodwill = ₹20,00,000 – ₹15,00,000 = ₹5,00,000.
