If goodwill is valued at three years' purchase of average profit and average profit is ₹20,000, what is goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹60,000

The governing concept is the average profit method of goodwill valuation. Under this method, goodwill is found by multiplying the average maintainable profit by the number of years’ purchase agreed by the partners. The formula is: Goodwill = Average Profit × Years’ Purchase. Substituting the figures given, Goodwill = ₹20,000 × 3 = ₹60,000. Option B simply repeats the average profit and ignores the three-year multiplier. Option C would require a different profit or period, while option D would correspond to four years at the same average profit. Since the question explicitly states three years’ purchase, the calculated value is ₹60,000, so option A is unambiguously correct.
