Solution

₹ 1,50,000

Explanation: 

Anita brought capital for 4/1th share = ₹ 2,00,000

Total capital of the firm = `₹ 2,00,000 xx 4/1 = ₹  8,00,000`

Actual Total Capital of Manas, Mili and Anita `= ₹ 3,00,000 + ₹ 1,50,000 + ₹ 2,00,000`
= ₹ 6,50,000

Value of Goodwill of Firm = Total Capital of Firm -Actual Total Capital

= ₹ 8,00,000 - ₹ 6,50,000

= ₹ 1,50,000
