उत्तर
Capital Employed = `( Total Liabilities - Current Liabilities)
= Rs. ( 9,00,000 + 6,00,000) = Rs. 15,00,000
Normal Profits = `("Capital employed" xx "Normal Rate of Return"/100)`
= Rs. 15,00,000 x `20/100` = Rs. 3,00,000
Average Profit = Rs. 4,50,000
Super Profits = Average Profit - Normal Profits
= Rs. 4,50,000 - 3,00,000 = Rs. 1,50,000
(i) As per Capitalisation Method,
Goodwill = `("Super Profits" xx 100/"Normal Rate of Return")`
= Rs. 1,50,000 x `100/20` = Rs. 7,50,000
(ii) As per Super Profit Method,
Goodwill = Super Profit x No. of years of Purchase
= Rs. 1,50,000 x 2 = Rs. 3,00,000.
