A, B and C share profits in the ratio 3:2:5. A dies, and the firm’s goodwill is valued at ₹60,000. How much will A’s executor receive for goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹18,000

A’s share in the profit-sharing ratio is \(\frac{3}{3+2+5}=\frac{3}{10}\). Therefore, A’s share of goodwill is \(₹60,000 \times \frac{3}{10}=₹18,000\), which is credited to A’s executor’s account. ₹24,000 would correspond to a \(\frac{2}{5}\) share, so it is incorrect. Exam tip: For a deceased partner’s goodwill adjustment, multiply the total goodwill by the partner’s old profit-sharing fraction.
