Table of Contents
47. Ajeet and Baljeet are partners in a firm. Their capitals are 9,00,000 and
6,00,000 respectively. During the year ended 31st March, 2019 the firm earned a profit of 4,50,000. Assuming
that the normal rate of return is 20%, calculate value of goodwill of the firm:
- By Capitalisation Method; and
- By Super Profit Method if the goodwill is valued at 2 years’ purchase of super profit.
The solution of Question 47 Chapter 3 of +2-A:
| Capital Employed | = | Ajeet’s Capital + Baljeet’s Capital |
| = | 9,00,000 + 6,00,000 | |
| = | 15,00,000 |
| Normal Profit | = | Capital Employed | X | Normal Rate of Return |
| 100 |
| = | 15,00,000 | X | 20 | |
| 100 | ||||
| = | 3,00,000 |
| Super Profit | = | Actual Profit – Normal Profit |
| = | 4,50,000 – 3,00,000 | |
| = | 1,50,000 |
| Goodwill (Capitalized Value of Super Profit) |
= | Super Profit X 100 |
| Normal Rate of Return |
| = | 1,50,000 X 100 | |
| 10 | ||
| = | 7,50,000 |
(ii) Super Profit Method if the goodwill is valued at 3 years’ purchase of super profits
| Goodwill | = | Super Profit X Numbers of years of purchases |
| = | 1,50,000 X 2 | |
| = | 3,00,000 |
