Solution

₹ 30,000

Explanation:

Actual Assets = 85,000 − 5,000

= ₹ 80,000

Capital Employed = Actual Assets − Net Liabilities

= 80,000 − 30,000

= ₹ 50,000

Normal Profit = Capital Employed `xx "NRR"/100`

= 50,000 `xx 10/100`

= ₹ 5,000

Super Profit = Average Profit − Normal Profit

= 8,000 − 5,000

= ₹ 3,000

Goodwill = `"Super Profit" xx 100/"NRR"`

= `3,000 xx 100/10`

= ₹ 30,000
