Profits are ₹60,000, ₹75,000 and ₹90,000. The third year includes abnormal profit of ₹15,000. What is the correct average profit?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹70,000

The governing principle in maintainable-profit calculation is that an abnormal item should be removed before finding average profit, because goodwill valuation normally uses a representative or sustainable profit. The reported third-year profit is ₹90,000, but it includes an abnormal profit of ₹15,000. Adjusted third-year profit = ₹90,000 − ₹15,000 = ₹75,000. The three maintainable profits are therefore ₹60,000, ₹75,000 and ₹75,000. Their total is ₹2,10,000, and the simple average is ₹2,10,000 ÷ 3 = ₹70,000. Option B ignores the averaging process, option C is not the corrected average, and option D is only the unaveraged total of the original figures.
