1995 Rs. 27,000
1996 Rs. 28,000
1997 Rs. 29,000

Answer:
Average profit = \(\frac{27,000+28,000+29,000}{3}\)
= 28,000
Goodwill = 2 yeas purchase of the average profit = 2 × 28,000 = 56,000.

Question 2.
A business has earned average profits of Rs. 1,00,000 during the last few years and the normal rate of return in a similar business is 10%. Ascertain the value of goodwill by capitalisation of superprofits method, given that the value of net assets of the business is Rs.8,20,000.

Answer:
Share of Profit of Z = \(\frac{1}{6}\)
Share of profit of X and Y = 1 – \(\frac{1}{6}\) = \(\frac{5}{6}\)
Total capital of X & Y= 50,000+ 40,000 = 90,000
Capital of X and Y for 5/6 share = 90,000
∴ Total capital of X,
Y and Z = 90,000×6/5 = 1,08,000
∴ Capital to be brought in by Z = 1,08,000 – 90,000
or 1,08,000 × 1/6 = 18,000.

Old ratio = 3:2:1 = 3/6 : 2/6: 1/6
New ratio = 1:1:1 = 1/3:1/3:1/3


Share of general reserve = 30,000 × \(\frac{1}{6}\) = 5000
Anila’s capital A/c Dr. 5000
To Smitha’s capital 5000
(Being goodwill adjusted between capital a/cs of Smitha and Anila, Neha’s profit sharing ratio remains
unchanged (Neha’s old ratio = \(\frac{2}{6}\) – \(\frac{1}{3}\), New ratio = \(\frac{1}{3}\)).

  5. Requirement of capital – if a firm requires a lesser amount of capital, it will have high goodwill.
  6. Market situation – if competition in the market is limited, it helps a firm to have more goodwill.

Question 2.
Describe the methods of valuing goodwill.
Answer:
The following are the common methods used for valuing good will

  1. Average profit method/simple average profit method.
  2. Super profit method
  3. capitalisation method.

1. Average Profit method:
Under this method, the goodwill is valued at agreed number of years purchase of the average profits of the past few years.
Goodwill = Average profits × No. of years purchased.
Average profit = \(\frac{\text { Total profits }}{\text { No. of years }}\)
Weighted Average Profit method:
Goodwill = weighted Average Profit × No. of years purchase. Weighted average is based on specified weights like 1, 2, 3, 4 for respective year’s profit.

2. Superprofit Method:
Under this method, goodwill is calculated by multiplying the super profit with the agreed num-ber of years.
Goodwill = Super Profit × No.of years purchase
Super Profit = Actual or Average Profit – Normal Profit
Normal profit = Capital employed × Normal Rate of Return
Capital employed = Total Assets – Total Liabilities or outside liabilities
Average profit = \(\frac{\text { Total profits }}{\text { No. of years }}\).

3. Capitalisation Method:
Under this method, the goodwill can be calcu-lated in two ways

  • by capitalising the average profits.
  • by capitalising the super profits.

(i) Capitalisation of average profits
Under this method, the value of goodwill is calculated by deducting the capital employed (net assets) in the business from the capitalized value of average profits on the basis of normal rate of return.
Good will = capitalised value – capital employed (net asset)
Capitalised value of average profit
Average Profit × \(\frac{100}{\text { Normal Rate of Return }}\)

(ii) Capitalisation of Super Profits
Under this method the goodwill can be ascertained by capitalising the super profit directly.
Goodwill = Super Profits × \(\frac{100}{\text { Normal Rate of Return }}\).

Question 3.
The following are the particulars in respect of two partnership firms.

Manu wishes to join in any one of the above firm which can make better profit. He seeks your advice as to which firm is more worth while and reputed.
Answer:
Capital Exployed = Assets – Liabilities = (10,000 + 15,000 + 20,000 + 20,000) – 5,000 = 60,000
Normal profit = Capital employed × Normal rate of return
60,000 × 10/100 = 6,000
Actual profit = 5,500
Super profit = Actual profit – Normal Profit
= 5,500 – 6,000 = -500
Firm Y
Capital Employed= (2,000 + 8,000 + 10,000 + 20,000) – 5,000 = 35,000
Normal profit = 35.000 × 10/100 = 3,500
Actual profit = 4,000
Superprofit = 4,000 – 3,500 = 500
Conclusion: Firm ‘Y’ earns Rs. 4,000 which is above normal profit.
Firm Y’s performance is better. So select Firm Y’.

Question 4.
How the capital accounts of the partners are adjusted at the time of admission of a new partner?
Answer:
At the time of admission of a new partner, the capital accounts of the partners may be adjusted in the following ways.
1. Asking the new partner to bring in the capital on the basis of the existing partner’s capital. Here new partners’ capital is calculated as follows.

  • Totalling the capitals of the existing partners left after making all adjustments.
  • Totalling the new profit-sharing rights of the old partners.
  • Total capital as per (a) is treated as the capital for the total rights as per (b)
  • On the basis of the above, calculating the amount of capital to be brought in by the new partner.

2. Adjusting the capital of the old partners on the basis of the capital brought in by the new partner. This is done as follows.

  • Comparing the capital of the incoming partner with the capitals of old partners.
  • Asking the partner to bring in the required amount whose capital is less.
  • Allowing the partner to withdraw the surplus amount whose capital is more.

A Goodwill Account is raised in the books of the firm. Goodwill of the firm is valued at two year’s purchase of average three year’s profits. The profits for the three years were Rs. 10,000, Rs. 8,000 and Rs. 9,000. The net profit sharing ratio will be 5:2:2. The partners decided to write off goodwill after C’s admission.

Answer:
Journal

Capital A/c

Calculation of Goodwill
Average profit = \(\frac{10,000+8,000+9,000}{3}\) = 9,ooo
Goodwill = Average profit × No. of years purchase
= 9,000 × 2 = 18,000
C’s share of Goodwill = 18,000 × 2/9 = 4,000
Sacrificing ratio = Old ratio – New ratio
Old ratio = 3:2
New ratio = 5:2:2
Sacrifice of A = 3/5 – 5/9 = 27 – 25 / 45 = 2/45
Sacrifice of B = 2/5 – 2/9 = 18 – 10 / 45 = 8/45
Sacrificing ratio of A and B = 2 : 8 = 1 : 4

  1. State the reason for reconstitution.
  2. Give a journal entry to adjust the revaluation profit through capital accounts of partners.

Answer:
Reconstitution refers to a change in the nature of relationship among partners due to

  1. Change in profit sharing ratio
  2. Admission
  3. Retirement
  4. Death or Amalgamation of two partnership firms.

In the firm of Ammu, Beena and Ceema reconstitution of firm takes place because they decided to change their profit sharing ratio:
Old ratio = 2:3:1 = 2/6 : 3/6: 1/6
New ratio = 1:2:3 = 1/6 : 2/6: 3/6
Ammu’s sacrifice = old ratio – new ratio
= 2/6 – 1/6 = 1/6
Beena’s sacrifice = old ratio-new ratio
= 3/6 – 2/6 = 1/6
Ceema’s gain = new ratio-old ratio = 3/6 – 1/6 = 2/6
Ammu’s revaluation profit = 22,500 × \(\frac{1}{6}\) = 3750
Beena’s revaluation profit = 22,500 × \(\frac{1}{6}\) = 3750
Ceema’s revaluation profit = 22,500 × \(\frac{1}{6}\) = 7500.

Revaluation A/c

Capital Accounts

Balance Sheet

Working Note
Goodwill Calculation: Here, Goodwill is calculated on the basis of super profit method.
Goodwill = Superprofit × No. years purchase
Superprofit = Actual or Average profit – Normal profit
Normal profit = Capital Employed × Normal rate of return
Capital employed = Asset – Liabilities
= (10,000 + 20,000 + 31,500 + 30,000+ 20,000) – 11,500
= 1,00,000
Normal profit = 1,00,000 × 10/100 = 10,000
Superprofit =40,000 – 10,000 = 30,000
Goodwill = 30,000 × 2 = 60,000
New partner’s share of Goodwill – 60,000 × 1/3
= 20,000
Sacrifacina ratio
Manu = 3/5 – 1/3 = 9 – 5/15 = 4/15
Raju = 2/5 – 1/3 = 6 – 5/15 = 1/15
Sacrificing ratio = 4:1
Manu = 3/5 – 1/3 = 9 – 5/15 = 4/15
Manu’s Sacrifice = 20,000 × 4/5 = 16,000
Raju’s Sacrifice = 20,000 × 1/5 = 4,000 [Hint: New ratio 1:1:1].
