A firm's profits for the last three years were ₹70,000, ₹88,000 and ₹92,000, respectively. The third year's profit includes an abnormal loss of ₹12,000. What adjusted profit should be considered for calculating goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹1,04,000

An abnormal loss is not part of the normal operating result, so it is added back to the reported profit. Thus, adjusted third-year profit = ₹92,000 + ₹12,000 = ₹1,04,000. ₹92,000 is the unadjusted profit and is therefore not correct. Exam tip: add back an abnormal loss while determining maintainable profit for goodwill.
