Aayush and Aarushi are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of $\displaystyle 3$ : 2. They admitted Naveen into partnership for l/4th share. Goodwill of the firm was to be valued at three years' purchase of super profits. Average net profit of the firm was ₹ $\displaystyle 20$,000. Capital investment in the business was ₹ $\displaystyle 50,000$ and Normal Rate of Return was $\displaystyle 10$%. Calculate the amount of Goodwill premium brought by Naveen.
Marking-scheme solution
Average Net Profit = ₹$\displaystyle 20,000$
Normal Profit = Normal Rate of Return x Capital Employed
Normal Profit = $\displaystyle 10$ x $\displaystyle 50,000$ = ₹$\displaystyle 5,000$
$\displaystyle 100$
Super Profit = Average Net Profit – Normal Profit
= $\displaystyle 20,000$ – $\displaystyle 5,000$
= ₹$\displaystyle 15,000$
Goodwill of the firm = Super Profit x Number of Years’ Purchase
= $\displaystyle 15,000$ x $\displaystyle 3$
= ₹$\displaystyle 45,000$
Goodwill Premium brought by Naveen = $\displaystyle 1$ x $\displaystyle 45,000$ = ₹$\displaystyle 11,250$
$\displaystyle 4$
