  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    If three partners A, B & C are sharing profits as $$5 : 3 : 2$$, then on the death of a partner A, how much B & C will pay to A's executor on account of good will. Good will is to be calculated on the basis of $$2$$ years purchase of last $$3$$ years average profits. Profits for last three years are : $$Rs.3,29,000$$; $$Rs.3,46,000$$ and $$Rs.4,05,000$$.
    Solution
    Profit sharing ratio of A, B and C = 5 : 3 : 2
    A's share = 5/10
    A's share of goodwill =  Total goodwill * A's share
                                        =  720000 * (5/10)
                                        = 360000    (W.N 1 & 2)
    B and C will contribute to A's share of goodwill in their new profit sharing ratio i.e., 3 : 2
    B's ccontributio = 360000 * (3/5) = 216000
    C's contribution = 360000 * (2/5) = 144000

    WORKING NOTES:
    1. Clculation of average profit 
    = (329000 + 346000 + 405000 ) / 3
    = 1080000 / 3 = 360000
    2. Calculation of goodwill = Average profit * No. of year's purchase
                                                = 360000 * 2
                                                = 720000
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    When required amount for premium for goodwill is not brought in by new partner, goodwill account is raised in the books of the firm by debiting goodwill account and crediting partners capital account in old profit sharing ratio and written off in ______ if it agreed not show goodwill in the books of the firm OR ALTERNATIVELY premium for goodwill should be adjusted through partners capital account by debiting new partners share of goodwill to his account and crediting old partners capital accounts in _________.
    Solution
    Accounting treatment of goodwill in case of a admission of a new partner:
    If the incoming partner brings any premium over and above his capital contribution at the time of his admission, such premium should be distributed to other existing partners. when a new partner is admitted to a firm, the old partners generally sacrifice in favour of the new partner in terms of lower profit sharing ratio in the future. Therefore, the premium for goodwill brought in by the new partner shall be given to the existing partners. 

    There can be two ways for the treatment of goodwill:
    1. Goodwill account is raised in the books of the firm by debiting goodwill account or crediting partners capital A/c in old ratio and written off in new profit sharing ratio.
    2. Premium for goodwill should be adjusted through partners capital account by debiting new partners share of goodwill  to his account and crediting old partners capital account in sacrificing ratio.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Average profit of a firm is Rs.$$1,20,000$$. The rate of capitalization is $$12\%$$. Assets and liabilities of the firm are $$10,000$$ & Rs.$$4,25,000$$ respectively. The value of goodwill of the firm is ________________.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Total Capital Employed Rs.$$8,00,000$$
    Reasonable Rate of Return $$15\%$$
    Profits for the year Rs$$12,00,000$$
    Solution
    Goodwill using capitalization method:
    Step 1: Capitalized value of profits: Profits/Reasonable Rate of Return=$$Rs.12,00,000$$/$$0.15$$=$$Rs.80,00,000$$
    Step 2: Capital employed=$$Rs.8,00,000$$ (given)
    Step 3: Value of Goodwill=Step 1 - Step 2= $$Rs.80,00,000$$-$$Rs.8,00,000$$= $$Rs.72,00,000$$
  • Question 8

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    A, B & C are equal partners. C wanted to retire for which value of goodwill is considered as $$Rs.90,000$$.
    The necessary journal entry will be:   
    Solution
    Profit sharing ratio of A, B and C is equal i.e. 1 : 1 : 1
    C's share of goodwill = Total goodwill * C's share 
                                        = Rs. 90000 * (1/3) = Rs. 30000
    C's share of goodwill will be given to him by gaining partners in gaining ratio at the time of C's retirement. Journal entry for the same will be:
    A's capital A/c                   Dr.      15000
    B's capital A/c                   Dr.      15000
                 To C's capital A/c                       30000
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Balances of A, B & C sharing profits & losses in proportionate to their capitals, stood as:
    A = $$Rs.2,00,000$$
    B = $$Rs.3,00,000$$
    C = $$Rs.2,00,000$$
    A desired to retire from the firm, B and C share the future profits equally, Goodwill of the entire firm be valued at $$Rs.1,40,000$$ and no Goodwill account being raised. What entry will be passed for payment of Goodwill?
    Solution
    Old ratio (A, B and C) = 2 : 3 : 2
    New ratio (B and C) = 1 : 1
    Gaining ratio = New ratio - Old ratio
    B's gain = (1/2) - (3/7) = 1/14
    C's gain = (1/2) - (2/7) =3/14
    A's share of goodwill = Total goodwill * A's share
                                       = 140000 * (2/7) 
                                       = 40000
    In case if no goodwill account is raised adjustment for payment of goodwill to retiring partner will be as follows:
           B's capital A/c    Dr.    10000
           C's capital A/c    Dr.    30000 
                       To A's capital A/c       40000
