The solution of Question 19 Chapter 3 of +2 Part-1: –
i) Calculation of Goodwill with average Profit
Number of years’ purchase | = | 3 |
Goodwill | = | Average Profit X Number of years’ purchase |
= | 42,000 X 4 | |
Goodwill | = | 1,68,000 |
ii) Four years purchase of super profit.
Number of years’ purchase | = | 4 |
Goodwill | = | Super Profit X Number of years’ purchase |
= | 12,000 X 4 | |
Goodwill | = | 48,000 |
iii) On the basis of Capitalisation of Super Profit.
Goodwill | = | Super Profit | X | 100 |
Normal Rate of Return | ||||
= | 12,000 | X | 100 | |
10 | ||||
= | 1,20,000 |
Working Notes: –
*1 Calculation of Average Profit
Average Profit | = | Profit for past given years |
Number of years | ||
= | (-18,000) + 30,000+ 25,000 + 55,000 + 65,000+ 95,000 | |
6 | ||
= | 2,52,000 | |
6 | ||
= | 42,000 |
*2 Calculation of Super Profit
Normal Profit | = | Capital Employed | X | Normal Rate of Return |
100 | ||||
= | 3,00,000 | X | 10 | |
100 | ||||
= | 30,000 |
Super Profit | = | Actual Profit – Normal Profit |
= | 42,000 – 30,000 | |
