Question
A and B are partners in a firm with capital of ₹ 60,000 and ₹ 1,20,000 respectively. They decide to admit C into the partnership for 1/4th share in the future profits. C is to bring in a sum of ₹ 70,000 as his capital. Calculate amount of goodwill.

Solution
Actual Capital of the firm after admission of C = A’s Capital + B’s Capital + C’s Capital
= 60,000 + 1, 20,000 + 70,000 = Rs 2, 50,000
Capitalised value of the firm on the basis of C's share = 70,000 x `4/1` = Rs. 2,80,000
Goodwill = Capitalised value of the firm - Actual Capital of the Firm
= 2,80,000 - 2,50,000
= Rs. 30,000.
