A, B and C share profits in the ratio 3:4:5. A dies, and the goodwill of the firm is valued at ₹96,000. How much will A’s executor receive as A’s share of goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹24,000

A’s share in the profit-sharing ratio is 3/(3+4+5) = 3/12. Therefore, A’s share of goodwill is ₹96,000 × 3/12 = ₹24,000, which is credited to A’s executor. ₹32,000 is incorrect because it represents one-third of the goodwill, whereas A’s actual share is 3/12, or one-fourth. Exam tip: To calculate a deceased partner’s share of goodwill, multiply the total goodwill by the partner’s old profit-sharing fraction.
