The retiring partner’s adjusted capital is ₹1,75,000 and the amount due to him is ₹2,03,000. His share is 2/9. What is the hidden goodwill?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹1,26,000

Hidden goodwill is inferred from the excess of the amount due to a retiring partner over that partner’s adjusted capital, provided no other adjustment explains the difference. The excess here is ₹2,03,000 − ₹1,75,000 = ₹28,000. This excess represents the retiring partner’s 2/9 share of the firm’s total hidden goodwill. To find the whole goodwill, divide by the partner’s fraction: ₹28,000 ÷ (2/9) = ₹28,000 × 9/2 = ₹1,26,000. Therefore option B is correct. ₹84,000 and ₹1,40,000 use incorrect multipliers, while ₹2,03,000 is the amount due to the partner, not the total value of goodwill.
