Working Notes:
Calculation of Goodwill brought in by Ajay
Value of
firm’s goodwill |
= Capitalised
value of the firm – Net worth |
Capitalised value of the firm |
= Share of Ajay's capital × Reciprocal of Ajay's share = 5,00,000 ×5/1= ` 25,00,000 |
Net worth of the new firm |
= Total assets-Outside liabilities + Ajay's capital = 15,00,000 - 5,00,000 + 5,00,000= ` 15,00,000 |
Value of firm's goodwill |
= Capitalised value of firm - Net worth of the new firm =25,00,000 - 15,00,000 = ` 10,00,000 |
Ajay's share of goodwill |
= 10,00,000 × 1/5 = ` 2,00,000 |

Question 42:

` |

` |
|
|
Machinery |
2,00,000 |
If the value
of machinery in the Balance Sheet is excess by 33 1/3, find the value of
machinery to be shown in the New Balance Sheet.
Answer:
If the value
of machinery in the Balance Sheet is excess by 33 1/3
Then the
book value is 100+33 1/3= 133 1/3
Excess Value
of Machinery is 2,00,000×33 1/3 ÷
133 1/3
Or
= 2,00,000×100/3 ×3/400 = 50,000
Value of
machinery to be shown in the New Balance Sheet = 2,00,000-50,000=
1,50,000
