Solution

Value of goodwill of a firm at 3 times of super profits is ₹ 54,000. Average profits of the firm are ₹ 60,000 (after an abnormal loss of ₹ 8,000). Normal rate of return is 10%. Capital invested in the firm will be ₹ 5,00,000.

Explanation:

Super Profit = `(54,000)/3 = 18,000`

Actual Average Profit = ₹ 60,000 + Abnormal Loss ₹ 8,000

= ₹ 68,000

Normal Profit = Actual Average Profit − Super Profit = ₹ 68,000 − ₹ 18,000 = ₹ 50,000

Capital Invested = `50,000 xx 100/10`

= ₹ 5,00,000
