What is the effect of the deceased partner’s share of goodwill in the final settlement?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The amount payable to the partner increases

The deceased partner is credited with his or her share of goodwill because the partner contributed to the firm’s reputation and earning capacity. This credit is added to the partner’s capital or current account and therefore increases the final amount payable. Hence, option A is correct; goodwill adjustment does not directly increase expenses, losses or debt. Exam tip: While calculating the amount due to a deceased partner, include the capital balance, share of goodwill, profit or loss adjustments and other entitled items.
