Working Notes:
Calculation of Goodwill
Goodwill = Average Profit × Number of Year’s Purchase
| Average Profit | = | 65,000 +60,000 +80,000 + 75,000 |
| 4 | ||
| = | Rs 70,000 |
∴ Goodwill = Average Profit × Number of Years’ Purchase
= 70,000 × 2.5 = Rs 1,75,000
Adjustment of Goodwill
Old Ratio R, S and T = 5 : 3: 2
T died.
∴ New Ratio R and S = 5 : 3
Gaining Ratio = 5 : 3
| T’s Share in Goodwill | = | 1,75,000 | X | 2 |
| 10 | ||||
| = | Rs 35,000 |
This share of goodwill is to be distributed between R and S in their gaining ratio i.e. 5 : 3.
| R’s Share in Goodwill | = | 35,000 | X | 5 |
| 8 | ||||
| = | Rs 21,875 |
| S’s Share in Goodwill | = | 35,000 | X | 3 |
| 8 | ||||
| = | Rs 13,125 |
Calculation of T’s Share of Profit
Profit for 2017-18 = Rs 75,000
| T’s Share of Profit for 2018-19 | = | 75,000 | X | 2 | X | 4 |
| 10 | 12 | |||||
| = | Rs 5,000 |
