The firm's total goodwill is (₹75000) and the new partner's share is (1/5). What is the new partner's share of goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (₹15000)

The direct answer is A: the new partner’s share of goodwill is ₹15,000. Total goodwill is ₹75,000, and the incoming partner takes \(1/5\) of the business. The required goodwill is found by multiplying total goodwill by the partner’s fraction: \(₹75,000\times1/5=₹15,000\). Option A is correct. Option B, ₹75,000, is the entire firm’s goodwill, not the new partner’s portion. Option C, ₹30,000, would equal \(2/5\) of the total and is too high. Option D, ₹50,000, would equal \(2/3\) of the total and is also unrelated. The fraction must be applied to the total goodwill, not added or divided incorrectly. Exam cue: incoming partner’s goodwill = total goodwill × incoming share.
