Working Notes:
WN 1 Calculation of Interest on Agarwal’s Loan
Interest on Loan = `84000xx12/100xx9/12 = 7560`
WN2 Calculation of Agarwal’s share in Profits
Average Profit = `(2,70,000 + 3,00,000 + 5,40,000 + 8,10,000)/4 = 4,80,000`
Share of Agarwal in profits = `4,80,000 xx 1/5 xx 9/12 = 72000`
WN3 Adjustment of Goodwill
Average Profit = 4,80,000
Goodwill of the firm = Average Profit x Number of year’s purchase
= 4, 80,000 x 3 = 14,40,000
Agarwal's Share of Goodwill = `1440000 xx 1/5 = 144000`
Joshi will pay = `288000 xx 1/2 = 144000`
Pandey will pay =`288000 xx 1/2 = 144000`
Note: Due to lack of information, the gaining ratio of Joshi and Pandey is same as their new ratio i.e. 2:2 or 1:1.
