The new profit-sharing ratio of A, B and C is 10:7:3. C is the new partner and brings ₹90,000 as goodwill for his share. What is the total goodwill of the firm?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹6,00,000

C’s share in the new ratio is 3/(10+7+3) = 3/20. The ₹90,000 goodwill brought by C represents 3/20 of the firm’s total goodwill. Therefore, total goodwill = ₹90,000 × 20/3 = ₹6,00,000. The ₹4,50,000 option is incorrect because 3/20 of it would be only ₹67,500. Exam tip: When the incoming partner’s share and the goodwill brought by that partner are given, use total goodwill = goodwill brought ÷ incoming partner’s share.
