Particulars 

31st March , 2014

31st March, 2015

31st March , 2016

31st March , 2017

31st March, 2018
Net Profit 37,000 47,000 53,000 60,000 70,000
Add: Abnormal Loss 4,000
Less: Abnormal Gain 5,000
Less: Profit of Lottery 6,000
Add: Loss by Fire 10,000
Adjusted Profit 37,000 51,000 48,000 54,000 80,000

 

Average Profit = Total Profits
Number of years
     
  = 37,000+51,000+48,000+54,000+80,000
  5
     
  = 2,70,000
  5

Goodwill = Average Profit x Number of Years’ Purchase = 54,000 x 2 = Rs. 1,08,000.
