Credit will be given to:
a) A ₹54,000; B ₹36,000

c) A ₹2,00,000; B ₹1,00,000
d) A ₹1,80,000; B ₹1,20,000
Ans:- b)
Explanation:-
A surrenders = 3/5 x 1/3 = 3/15
B Surrenders = 2/5 x 1/4 = 2/20
Sacrificing ratio of A & B after making base equal
= 3/15 x 4/4 : 2/20 x 3/3 i.e., 2 : 1
C’s premium for goodwill
= 3,00,000 x 3/10 = ₹ 90,000
A will be credited
= 90,000 x 2/3 = ₹ 60,000
B will be credited
= 90,000 x 1/3 = ₹ 30,000

a) ₹2,40,000
b) ₹1,00,000
c) ₹1,50,000
d) ₹3,00,000
Ans:- d)

Total Capital of the firm (Including goodwill)
C’s Capital x reciprocal of his share
= 3,40,000 x 3 = ₹ 10,20,000
Total Capital of the firm (excluding goodwill)
A’s Capital + B’s Capital + C’s Capital
= ₹ 1,80,000 + ₹ 2,00,000 + ₹ 3,40,000
= ₹ 7,20,000
Goodwill of the firm = Total Capital of the firm (Including goodwill) – Total Capital of the firm (Excluding goodwill)
= ₹ 10,20,000 – ₹ 7,20,000
= ₹ 3,00,000

= 5/8 – 4/9 = 13/72
Y sacrifices = 3/8 – 3/9 = 3/72
Sacrificing ratio of X and Y is 13 : 3
Z’s premium for goodwill
= 1,26,000 x 2/9 = ₹ 28,000
X will be credited
= 28,000 x 13/16 = ₹ 22,750

= 1,20,000/4 = ₹ 30,000
Goodwill of the firm
= Average Profit of last 4 years x 3 years purchase
= 30,000 x 3 = ₹ 90,000
S’s premium for goodwill
= 90,000 x 1/5 = ₹ 18,000
