Goodwill is ₹200,000 and C is admitted for a 1/10 share. If C brings ₹25,000 as goodwill, what is the correct meaning of the excess amount?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹5,000 excess premium is brought

The incoming partner’s share of goodwill is calculated by multiplying the firm’s total goodwill by the share acquired. Thus, C’s required premium is ₹200,000 × 1/10 = ₹20,000. Since C actually brings ₹25,000, the amount brought exceeds the required premium by ₹25,000 − ₹20,000 = ₹5,000. Therefore, option A correctly describes the situation as ₹5,000 excess premium. It is not a shortage, because the amount brought is greater than the amount due. The total goodwill is also not zero; ₹200,000 is the stated value of the firm’s goodwill, so options B, C and D are incorrect.
