Weighted average profit is ₹84,000 and years' purchase is 2.5. The new partner takes a 1/5 share. What is his premium?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹42,000

The governing concept is the calculation of an incoming partner’s share of goodwill. First determine total goodwill under the weighted-average-profit method: ₹84,000 × 2.5 = ₹2,10,000. The new partner receives one-fifth of the firm, so the premium payable for goodwill is ₹2,10,000 × 1/5 = ₹42,000. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B is the total goodwill of the firm, not the new partner’s premium. Option C divides the average profit by five but fails to apply years’ purchase, and option D is simply the average profit rather than the value of the acquired goodwill share.
