The total goodwill of a firm is ₹54,000 and the new partner takes a 1/6 share. What is his share of goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹9,000

Answer: option A, ₹9,000. The new partner’s share of goodwill is found by multiplying the firm’s total goodwill by the fraction of profit or interest acquired by that partner. Here, total goodwill=₹54,000 and the partner’s share=1/6. Therefore, his goodwill share=₹54,000×1/6=₹9,000. Another way to see it is to divide ₹54,000 into six equal parts; each part is ₹9,000, and the partner receives one such part. Option B is the entire goodwill of the firm, not the incoming partner’s portion. Option C, ₹18,000, is one-third of the total, while option D, ₹45,000, is the remaining five-sixths after removing ₹9,000. The key memory cue is: partner’s goodwill share = total goodwill × partner’s fraction.
