WN-1 Calculation of goodwill

The goodwill of the firm was valued at ` 3,50,000

Karim’s Share of Goodwill = 3,50,000×3/10 = ` 1,05,000

Goodwill Share of Karim is in Goodwill will be compensated by Saleem and Raheem in 4:3

Saleem = 1,05,000× 4/7 = 60,000

Raheem = 1,05,000× 3/7 = 45,000

 

WN-2 Karim’s share of Profit till the date of death

The average profits = 1,70,000+1,30,000+1,90,000 +1,10,000/4=1,50,000

Working notes:

 

WN-1 Calculation of goodwill

The average profits of the last three years were ` 55,000

Goodwill of the Firm = ` 55,000×2=1,10,000

Share of Sadhu is in Goodwill = 1,10,000 × 4/10 = 44,000

 

Goodwill Share of Sadhu is in Goodwill will be compensated by Raja and Karan in 2:4

Raja = 44,000 × 2/6 = 14,667

Karan = 44,000 × 4/6 = 29,333

 

WN-2 Interest on capital was to be provided @ 5% p.a.

Sadhu’s Interest on Capital = 80,000×5×4/100×12= 1,333

 

WN-3 Calculation of Sadhu’s share of Profit

Sales for the year ended 31st March, 2021 = ` 4,50,000

The profit for the year ended 31st March, 2021 = ` 1,25,000.

Percentage of Profit for the year ended 31st March, 2021 = 1,25,000×100/4,50,000= 28%

Sales from 1st April to 31st July, 2021 = ` 2,70,000

Profit from 1st April to 31st July, 2021 = ` 2,70,000×28/100= ` 75,600

Sadhu’s Share of Profit = 75,600×28×4/100×10 = ` 8,467
