What is the basis for including the firm's share of goodwill while calculating a deceased partner's due?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Principle of economic entitlement

Goodwill represents the value of the firm's reputation, customer base and capacity to earn super profits. Therefore, the deceased partner has an economic entitlement to the partner's share of goodwill, which is included in the amount payable through the partner's Capital Account. Cash basis, matching and conservatism are not the fundamental basis for this adjustment. Exam tip: While calculating the final amount due, include all adjustments up to the date of death, including goodwill, profit up to death and capital balance.
