Table of Contents
9. Bharat and Bhushan are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 3: 2. They decided to admit
- Manu as a partner from 1st April 2019 on the following terms:
- Manu will be given 2/5th share of the profit.
Goodwill of the firm will be valued at two years’ purchase of three years’ normal average profit of the firm.
Profits of the previous three years ended 31st March, were:
2019 – Profit 30,000 after debiting loss of stock by fire 40, 000.
2018 – Loss 80,000 includes voluntary retirement compensation paid 1, 10, 000.
2017 – Profit 1,10,000 including again (profit of 30,000 on the sale of fixed assets).
Calculate the value of goodwill.
The solution of Question 09 Chapter 3 of +2-A:
| Average Profit | = | Total Profit for past given years |
| Number of years |
| Average Profit | = | 80,000+30,000+70,000 |
| 3 |
| = | 1,80,000 | |
| 3 | ||
| = | 60,000 |
Number of years’ purchase = 2
| Goodwill | = | Average Profit X Number of years of purchase |
| Goodwill | = | 60,000 X 2 |
| Goodwill | = | 1,20,000/- |
Working Note: –
*1 Calculation of Adjusted Profit
| Adjusted Profit for the year ended 31st March,2017 | = | Total Profit − Gain on sale of Fixed Assets |
| = | 1,10,000 – 30,000 | |
| = | 80,000 |
|
| Adjusted Profit for the year ended 31st March,2018 | = | Total Profit + Voluntary retirement Compensation paid |
| = | (-80,000) + 1,10,000 | |
| = | 30,000 | |
| Adjusted Profit for the year ended 31st March,2019 | = | Total Profit + Loss by fire |
| = | 30,000 + 40, 000 | |
| = | 70,000 |
