The retiring partner's adjusted capital is ₹1,60,000 and the amount due is ₹1,90,000. His share is 1/6. What is the hidden goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹1,80,000

Hidden goodwill is inferred when the amount payable to a retiring partner exceeds the partner’s adjusted capital. First find the excess representing that partner’s share of goodwill: ₹1,90,000−₹1,60,000=₹30,000. This ₹30,000 is 1/6 of the firm’s total goodwill. Therefore, total hidden goodwill = ₹30,000 ÷ 1/6 = ₹30,000 × 6 = ₹1,80,000. Hence option D is correct. Option A is only the retiring partner’s individual share of goodwill, not the firm’s total hidden goodwill. Options B and C do not result from multiplying the excess by the reciprocal of the partner’s fraction, so they are not supported by the data.
