Table of Contents
34. Average profit earned by a firm is 1,00,000 which includes undervaluation of stock of 40,000 on an average basis. The capital invested in the business is 6,30,000 and the normal rate of return is 5%. Calculate goodwill of the firm on the basis of 5 times the super profit.
The solution of Question 34 Chapter 3 of +2-A:
| Super Profit | = | Actual average Profit – Normal Profit |
| Actual average Profit | = | Average Profit + or – Adjustments (if any) |
| = | 1,00,000 +40,000 (average undervaluation of stock) | |
| = | 1,40,000 |
| Normal Profit | = | Capital Employed | X | Normal Rate of Return |
| 100 |
| = | 6,30,000 | X | 5 | |
| 100 | ||||
| = | 31,500 |
| Super Profit | = | 1,40,000- 31,500 |
| = | 1,08,500 |
Number of years’ purchase = 5
| Goodwill | = | Super Profit X Number of years of purchase |
| = | 1,08,500 X 5 | |
| = | 5,42,500 |
