Profits for three years are (₹40000), (₹50000) and (₹60000). What is average profit under average profit method?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (₹50000)

Direct answer: Option A, ₹50,000. Under the average profit method, add the profits of all the given years and divide the total by the number of years. The three profits are ₹40,000, ₹50,000 and ₹60,000. Step 1: add them: ₹40,000 + ₹50,000 + ₹60,000 = ₹150,000. Step 2: there are three years, so divide by 3: ₹150,000 ÷ 3 = ₹50,000. Therefore average profit is ₹50,000. Option A is correct. Option B, ₹60,000, is only the highest individual yearly profit, not the average. Option C, ₹45,000, results from an incorrect total or division. Option D, ₹150,000, is the total profit for all three years, not the average. The average is useful in goodwill valuation because it represents a normal yearly earning based on the available past results. Memory cue: average profit equals total adjusted profits divided by the number of years; do not stop after adding.
