Why is the firm’s goodwill valued while calculating the deceased partner’s share?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To adjust the deceased partner’s share in the firm’s reputation and future earning capacity

Goodwill is the intangible value arising from the firm’s reputation, customer loyalty and ability to earn higher future profits. On a partner’s death, the deceased partner is entitled to compensation for their share of the firm’s goodwill according to the partnership deed or the applicable profit-sharing ratio. Therefore, goodwill is adjusted in the amount payable to the deceased partner; it is not a personal expense, a loan, or cash sales. Exam tip: add the deceased partner’s share of goodwill to the final amount due, subject to the partnership agreement.
