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.
