A business has earned average profits of Rs. 1,00,000 during the last few years and the normal rate of return in similar business is 10%. Find out the value of Goodwill by (i) Capitalisation of super profit method and (ii) Super profit method if the goodwill is valued at 3 years purchase of super profit. The assets of the business were Rs. 10,00,000 and its external liabilities Rs. 1,80,000.
(i) Calculation of good will by capitalisation of super profit method:
* Average profit earned by the firm = Rs 1,00,000
* Capital employed = Asset – Liabilities |
= 10,00,000 – 1,80,000= 8,20,000
* Normal profit = capital employed* normal rate of return |
= 8,20,000* 10% = 82,000
* Super Profit = Average profit earned – Normal profit |
= 1,00,000- 82,000 = 18000
* Good will = Capitalisation of super profit = Super profit * 100/ Normal rate of return |
=18000*100/10 =Rs 1,80,000/-
(ii) Calculation of good will by super profit method:
Average profit earned by the firm = 1,00,000
Normal profit earned = capital employed * normal rate of return
Capital employed = asset – liabilities = 8,20,000
Normal profit = 820000* 10/100 =82,000
Super profit = average profit – normal profit
= 1,00,000 – 82,000 = 18,000
Goodwill valued at 3 years purchase of super profit = 18000* 3 = Rs 54000/-
