What does capital employed mean in goodwill valuation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Actual capital used in business

Capital employed means the net funds or assets actually used in carrying on the business. In a simplified balance-sheet approach, it is commonly calculated as total business assets minus external liabilities; appropriate adjustments may be made according to the specific method and facts. In goodwill valuation, capital employed is important because it helps determine normal profit, often through the formula Normal Profit = Capital Employed × Normal Rate of Return ÷ 100. Option A is therefore correct. A partner’s house is not automatically a business asset, a partner’s personal loan is not necessarily firm capital, and monthly salary is an expense or remuneration rather than capital employed. The term refers to business resources, not personal items.
