The profits for four consecutive years are ₹40,000, ₹50,000, ₹60,000 and ₹70,000, respectively. What will be the value of goodwill at three years’ purchase under the average profit method?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹1,65,000

Total profit = ₹40,000 + ₹50,000 + ₹60,000 + ₹70,000 = ₹2,20,000. Average profit = ₹2,20,000 ÷ 4 = ₹55,000. Under the average profit method, goodwill = Average Profit × Years’ Purchase = ₹55,000 × 3 = ₹1,65,000. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B represents the total profit, while option C represents only the average profit, not goodwill. Exam tip: First divide total profit by the number of years to find average profit, and then multiply it by the years’ purchase.
