Question
Capital employed in a business is Rs. 2,00,000. The normal rate of return on capital employed is 15%. During the year 2015 the firm earned a profit of Rs. 48,000. Calculate goodwill on the basis of 3 years purchase of super profit?
Solution
Capital Employed = Rs 2,00,000
Actual Profit = 48,000
Normal Rate of Return = 15%
Normal Profit = Capital Employed × `"Normal Rate of Return"/100`
= 2,00,000 x `5/100`
= Rs 30,000
Super profit = Actual Profit − Normal Profit
= 48,000 - 30,000
= Rs. 18,000
Goodwill = Super Profit × Number of Years Purchase
= 18,000 × 3
= Rs 54,000
