Super Profit Method
21. Average profit earned by a firm is 80,000 which includes undervaluation of stock of 8,000 on an average basis. The capital invested in the business is 8,00,000 and the normal rate of return is 8%. Calculate goodwill of the firm on the basis of 7 times the super profit.
The solution of Question 21 Chapter 3 of +2-A:
Super Profit | = | Actual average Profit- Normal Profit |
Actual average Profit | = | Average Profit + Adjustments (if any) |
= | 80,000 + 8,000 (Undervaluation of Stock) | |
= | 88,000 |
Normal Profit | = | Capital Employed | X | Normal Rate of Return |
100 |
= | 8,00,000 | X | 8 | |
100 | ||||
= | 64,000 |
Super Profit | = | 88,000 – 64,000 |
= | 24,000 |
Number of years’ purchase = 7
Goodwill | = | Super ProfitX number of years of purchase |
Goodwill | = | 24,000 X 3 |
Goodwill | = | 1,68,000 |
