Question 1:
Goodwill is to be
valued at three years' purchase of four years' average profit. Profits for last
four years ending on 31st March of the firm were:
2016 − ` 12,000; 2017 − ` 18,000; 2018 − ` 16,000; 2019 − ` 14,000.
Calculate amount of Goodwill.
Answer:
Goodwill= Average profit × no. of
purchases years’
Average
profit = total profit of past given years/number of years
Average
profit =12,000+18,000+16,000+14,000/4=15,000
Number of years’ purchase = 3
Goodwill=
Average profit × no. of purchases years’
Goodwill=
15,000 × 3=45,000

Question 2:
Profits for the five
years ending on 31st March, are as follows:

` 3,98,000; Year 2017 −
` 4,50,000; Year 2018 −
` 4,45,000 and Year 2019
− ` 5,00,000.

Goodwill=Average Profits×Number of Years' Purchase
Average Profits = Total ProfitsNumber of Years=4,00,000+3,98,000+4,50,000+4,45,000+5,00,0005=21,93,0005= ` 4,38,600
Goodwill =4,38,600×4= ` 17,54,400

15,00,000 |
18,00,000 |
4,00,000 (Loss) |
13,00,000 |
Answer:
Goodwill= Average profit × no. of

Average profit =8,00,000+15,00,000+18,00,000-4,00,000
(Loss)+ 13,00,000/5=50,00,000
Average profit =50,00,000/510,00,000
Number of years’ purchase = 3
Goodwill=
Average profit × no. of purchases years’
Goodwill=
10,00,000 × 3=30,00,000

Average Profit
for Five Years=56,500/4=14,125
Average Profit of four years is
taken to compute the value of goodwill of the firm. This is because Average
Profit of four years is more than the Average Profit of five years.
