Working Notes:

1. Average profit =  `"Total Profit"/"No. of years"`

= `(1000+ 10,500 + 10,000 + 16,000 + 10,000)/5`

= `(47,500)/5`

= ₹ 9,500

Goodwill = Avg. profit × No. of years

= 9,500 × 3 years

= ₹ 28,500

Goodwill value given in balance sheet = ₹ 30,000

New value arrived at = ₹ 28,500

Loss due to revaluation = ₹ 1,500

To be recorded in P & Loss Adj. A/c – Dr. Side.

In asset side of Balance sheet, write ₹ 28,500 for Goodwill.

2. Balance of Bank A/c = Opening Balance − Cheque given to Dinu

= 5,000 – 3,000

= ₹ 2,000
