Calculation of Goodwill
| Average Profit | = | 10,000+20,000+30,0003=60,0003 |
| = | Rs 20,000 |
|
| Goodwill | = | Average Profits × Number of years’ purchase |
| = | (20,000×1.5) – 12,000 | |
| = | 30,000 – 12,000 | |
| = | Rs 18,000 |
Calculation of Z’s share of goodwill
| Z’s share of goodwill | = | 18,0000 | X | 1 |
| 6 | ||||
| = | Rs 3,000 |
