Working Notes:
WN 1: Calculation of Y's Share of Goodwill
Goodwill of the Firm= ` 60,000

Y's Share of Goodwill = 60,000 × 2/6 = ` 20,000

20,000 will be debited to X's & Z's Capital A/c in gaining ratio of 3 : 1

X will pay = 20,000 × 3/4 = ` 15,000

Z will pay = 20,000 × 1/4 = ` 5,000 

WN 2: Calculation of Y's Share of Profit
Previous Year's Profit = ` 1,50,000

Y's share of Profit (till death) = Previous Year's Profit × Y's Profit Share × 3 months (April 01, 2021 till June 30, 2021)

Y's share of Profit (till death) = 1,50,000 × 2/6 × 3/12= ` 12,500

 

Question 7:


P, R and S are in partnership sharing profits 4/8, 3/8 and 1/8 respectively. It is provided in the Partnership Deed that on the death of any partner his share of goodwill is to be valued at one-half of the net profit credited to his account during the last four completed years.
R died on 1st January, 2023. The firm's profits for the last four years ended 31st December, were as: 
2020  ` 1,20,000; 2021 −
 ` 80,000; 2022 −  ` 40,000; 2023 −  ` 80,000.
(a) Determine the amount that should be credited to R in respect of his share of Goodwill.
(b) Pass Journal entry without raising Goodwill Account for its adjustment.

 

Answer:


Calculation of R’s Share of Goodwill

Profit credited to R’s Capital Account in 4 years = Net profit for last four years × R’s Share
=1,20,000+80,000+80,000+4,000×3/8          

=3,20,000×3/8=1,20,000

Working Notes:

R’s Share of Goodwill =
` 60,000

Old Ratio (P, R and S) = 4 : 3 : 1

R died.

Gaining Ratio = 4 : 1

This share of goodwill is to be distributed between P and S in their gaining ratio (i.e. 4 : 1)

p’s Share of Goodwill = 60,000×4/5=48,000

S’s share of Goodwill =60,000 ×1/5=12,000

Her share of profit for the intervening period was based on the sales during that period, which were ` 6,00,000. The rate of profit during the past four years had been 10% on sales.

Answer:


Sales during that period of the firm from 1st April, 2017 to 30th June, 2017 ` 6,00,000

The rate of profit during the past four years had been 10% on sales

Profit of the firm from 1st April, 2017 to 30th June, 2017 is ` 6,00,000 × 10/100 = ` 60,000

Share of Profit is ` 60,000 × 2/6 = ` 20,000
