A, B and C share profits in the ratio 2:2:1. C retires. Goodwill is ₹40,000. What is C's share of goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹8,000

A retiring partner’s share of goodwill is normally calculated using the partner’s old profit-sharing fraction, unless a different agreement is specifically stated. The old ratio is 2:2:1, so the total number of parts is 2 + 2 + 1 = 5. C has one part and therefore owns 1/5 of the firm’s goodwill. Calculation: C’s goodwill share = ₹40,000 × 1/5 = ₹8,000. The amount ₹16,000 corresponds to two-fifths, ₹20,000 corresponds to one-half, and ₹32,000 corresponds to four-fifths; none represents C’s one-fifth share. Hence option A is correct. The calculation is based on the old ratio because C’s entitlement arose before retirement.
