The new profit-sharing ratio of A, B and C is 5:4:3. C is the new partner. If C's share of goodwill is ₹45,000, what is the total goodwill of the firm?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹1,80,000

C's share in the new ratio is \(\frac{3}{5+4+3}=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}\). Therefore, ₹45,000 represents one-fourth of the firm's total goodwill. Total goodwill \(=₹45,000 \div \frac{1}{4}=₹1,80,000\). The option ₹1,50,000 is incorrect because one-fourth of it is only ₹37,500. Exam tip: To find total goodwill, divide the incoming partner's goodwill by that partner's share in the new profit-sharing ratio.
