उत्तर
| Year | Profit (₹) | Weight | Product (Profit × Weight) |
| 2021 | 80,000 | 1 | 80,000 |
| 2022 | 1,00,000 | 2 | 2,00,000 |
| 2023 | 1,10,000 | 3 | 3,30,000 |
| 2024 | 1,50,000 | 4 | 6,00,000 |
Total of Products = 12,10,000
Total of Weights = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10
Calculate Weighted Average Profit:
Weighted Average Profit `= "Total of Products"/"Total of Weights"`
`= (12,10,000)/10`
= 1,21,000
Goodwill is to be valued at 3 years’ purchase of weighted average profit:
Goodwill = 1,21,000 × 3
= 3,63,000
