The profits for four years are ₹60,000, ₹75,000, ₹85,000 and ₹1,00,000, respectively. What will be the firm’s goodwill at three years’ purchase under the average profit method?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹2,40,000

Total profit = ₹60,000 + ₹75,000 + ₹85,000 + ₹1,00,000 = ₹3,20,000. Average profit = ₹3,20,000 ÷ 4 = ₹80,000. Under the average profit method, goodwill = Average Profit × Number of Years’ Purchase = ₹80,000 × 3 = ₹2,40,000; hence, option A is correct. Option C is only the average profit, not the goodwill. Exam tip: Always calculate the average profit before multiplying it by the years’ purchase.
