8. AVERAGE PROFITS METHOD
Before calculating the average profits the following adjustments should
be made in the profits of the firm:
a. Any abnormal profits should be deducted from the net profits of that year.
b. Any abnormal loss should be added back to the net profits of that year.
c. Non operating incomes i.e. income from investments etc. should be deducted
from the net profits of that year.

As mentioned in the beginning of this presentation, goodwill is one of the major intangible
assets of any business. Greater the goodwill of a business, greater the value of its intangible
assets and thus, greater the acquisition price in a takeover.
58. HOW TO DEVELOP GOODWILL
Quality Product and Services: Nothing is more important for the life of goodwill in a business than the standard and quality
of the products and services it offers.
Unique Selling Proposition: A good business always has a USP by which it is identified - there has to be something in the
business for people to be attracted to it.
Satisfied Customer Base: A customer is more likely to return or recommend the services of a business if he/she has a pleasant
and satisfactory experience in the first instance. Following good business ethics goes a long way in impressing customers and
investors.
Marketing and Advertisements: A business which is under the spotlight for the right reasons creates goodwill for itself.
Offers, discounts and even Samaritan deeds in a business ensures its place in the good books.
Strategy and Management: Goodwill has to be deliberately developed and it is possible to do so only if the employees are
well-trained, reputed and capable. A good strategy or 'game plan' is essential to keep the business on track and motivated.
Innovation and Expansion: For a business to be viewed as valuable, it has to be one step ahead of its competitors. Though it
sounds clichéd, stagnancy has no place in the goodwill of a business.
Profits and Gains: Customers and investors are more willing to deal with a business if it is profitable or if they believe that it
has the potential of making profits (given a chance).
59. AT THE END OF THE DAY GOODWILL PLAYS A KEY PART IN THE
BUSINESS TRANSACTION. JUST LIKE HOW A MAN HAS HIS
REPUTATION, A COMPANY’S REPUTATION IS WHAT WE CALL
GOODWILL.
GOODWILL DETERMINES HOW WELL THE BUSINESS IS ESTABLISHED.
HAVING A HIGH GOODWILL VALUE WILL ENSURE THAT IF YOU ARE
SELLING YOUR BUSINESS THEN YOU WILL GAIN A LARGER AMOUNT
FOR IT. SO BUILDING UP THAT GOODWILL IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS
USING THE CORRECT METHOD OF VALUATING IT.

Editor's Notes
Presentation on Goodwill Valuation
Presentation on Goodwill Valuation
Nature of business: It means the prevailing competition, level of risk involved, govt. Regulations, nature of demands etc. If the existing business units are earning more than normal profits and have secured monopolistic position, they will be enjoying more goodwill.
Favorable location: It is very well known that certain cities or places are most suitable for particular industries, business having units falling under same areas can enjoy the goodwill by selling more products. It must be noted that goodwill arises in a particular locality only because shopping space is limited in relation to demand for it.
Capital requirements: Amount of capital required for a business is also influences the value of goodwill. The business requiring less capital can realize higher amount of goodwill than another business earning less profits with a huge amount of capital.
Life of the business: Time also increases the value of goodwill. Business running on profitable lines for the last many year enjoys more goodwill as compared to the recent started business.
Trade name: A firm which possesses the necessary patents and trademarks for selling its products will have built up good reputation and enjoys goodwill.
Managerial ability: The efficiency, skill and ability of the managerial personnel is also an important factor on which value of goodwill depends. The efficient management helps in increasing profits in the business which in turn, increases the value of goodwill.
Profit trends: When the last year’s records of the business shows the constantly increasing profits, it will lead to attract higher value for its goodwill.
Quality of products: The business units which enjoy good commercial reputation for the quality of their products, they have a high value of value of goodwill.

A Ltd agreed to buy the business of B Ltd. For that purpose Goodwill is to be valued at three years purchase of Average Profits of last five years.
Total profits in the past five years = $( 10,000,000 + 12,250,000 + 7,450,000 - 2,450,000 + 12,400,000 ) =$39,650,000
Total Profits after adjustments = $(39,650,000 + 1,000,500 - 4,500,250) = $36,150,250
Average Profits= $(36,150,250÷5) = $7,230,050
Goodwill = $(7,230,050×3) = $21,690,150
Thus A Ltd would pay $21,690,150 as the price of Goodwill earned by B Ltd.

i.e. the excess of actual profits over the average profits.
For example, if the normal rate of return in a particular type of business is 20% and your investment in the business is $1,000,000 then your normal profits should be $ 200,000. But if you earned a net profit of $ 230,000 then this excess of profits earned over the normal profits i.e. $ 230,000 - $ 200,000=$30,000 are your super profits. For calculating Goodwill, Super Profits are multiplied by the agreed number of years of purchase.
Steps for calculating Goodwill under this method are given below:
Normal Profits = Capital Invested X Normal rate of return/100
Super Profits = Actual Profits - Normal Profits
Goodwill = Super Profits x No. of years purchased
Steps for calculating Goodwill under this method are given below:
Normal Profits = Capital Invested X Normal rate of return/100
Super Profits = Actual Profits - Normal Profits
Goodwill = Super Profits x No. of years purchased
Steps for calculating Goodwill under this method are given below:
Normal Profits = Capital Invested X Normal rate of return/100
Super Profits = Actual Profits - Normal Profits
Goodwill = Super Profits x No. of years purchased
Steps for calculating Goodwill under this method are given below:
Normal Profits = Capital Invested X Normal rate of return/100
Super Profits = Actual Profits - Normal Profits
Goodwill = Super Profits x No. of years purchased
The capital employed as shown by the books of ABC Ltd is $ 50,000,000. And the normal rate of return is 10 %. Goodwill is to be calculated on the basis of 3 years purchase of super profits of the last four years.
Profits for the last four years are:
Solution:
Total profits for the last four years = $(10,000,000 + 12,250,000 + 7,450,000 + 5,400,000) = $35,100,000
Average Profits = $(35,100,000 / 4) = $8,775,000
Normal Profits = $(50,000,000 X 10/100) = $5,000,000
Super Profits = Average/ Actual Profits − Normal Profits = $(8,775,000 − 5,000,000) = $3,775,000
Goodwill = $(3,775,000 × 3) = $11,325,000
Solution:
Total profits for the last four years = $(10,000,000 + 12,250,000 + 7,450,000 + 5,400,000) = $35,100,000
Average Profits = $(35,100,000 / 4) = $8,775,000
Normal Profits = $(50,000,000 X 10/100) = $5,000,000
Super Profits = Average/ Actual Profits − Normal Profits = $(8,775,000 − 5,000,000) = $3,775,000
Goodwill = $(3,775,000 × 3) = $11,325,000
Solution:
Now in order to find super profit we need to subtract normal profits from the average profit
We know the average profit is 8,775,000. Our capital was 50,000,000 and rate of return was 10%. So normal profit 5,000,000
Super Profits = Average/ Actual Profits − Normal Profits = $(8,775,000 − 5,000,000) = $3,775,000
Goodwill = $(3,775,000 × 3) = $11,325,000
Solution:
The subtraction result is $3,775,000
Super Profits = Average/ Actual Profits − Normal Profits = $(8,775,000 − 5,000,000) = $3,775,000
Goodwill = $(3,775,000 × 3) = $11,325,000
Solution:
Now multiply it by 3
Goodwill = $(3,775,000 × 3) = $11,325,000
Under this method we calculate the average profits and then assess the capital needed for earning such average profits on the basis of normal rate of return. Such capital is called capitalized value of average profits
Under this method we calculate the average profits and then assess the capital needed for earning such average profits on the basis of normal rate of return. Such capital is called capitalized value of average profits
For example XYZ Inc. earns $40,000 as its average profits. The normal rate of return is 10%. Total assets of the firm are $1,000,000 and its total external liabilities are $ 500,000. To calculate the amount of goodwill:
Total capitalized value of the firm = $(60,000 × 100/10) = $600,000
Capital Employed = $(1,000,000 − 500,000) = $500,000
Goodwill = $(600,000 − 500,000) = $100,000
For example XYZ ink earns $40,000 as its average profits. The normal rate of return is 10%. Total assets of the firm are $1,000,000 and its total external liabilities are $ 500,000. To calculate the
Total capitalized value of the firm = $(40,000 × 100/10) = $400,000
Capital Employed = $(1,000,000 − 500,000) = $500,000
Goodwill = $(500,000 − 400,000) = $100,000
e amount of goodwill:
For example XYZ ink earns $40,000 as its average profits. The normal rate of return is 10%. Total assets of the firm are $1,000,000 and its total external liabilities are $ 500,000. To calculate the
Total capitalized value of the firm = $(40,000 × 100/10) = $400,000
Capital Employed = $(1,000,000 − 500,000) = $500,000

Under this method we calculate the average profits and then assess the capital needed for earning such average profits on the basis of normal rate of return. Such capital is called capitalized value of average profits
Goodwill = Super Profits X (100/ Normal Rate of Return)
Steps for calculating super profit:
Normal Profits = Capital Invested X Normal rate of return/100
Super Profits = Actual Profits - Normal Profits
Steps for calculating super profit:
Normal Profits = Capital Invested X Normal rate of return/100
Super Profits = Actual Profits - Normal Profits
ABC Ltd earns a profit of $ 50,000 by employing a capital of $ 200,000, The normal rate of return of a firm is 20%. To calculate Goodwill:
Normal Profits = $(200,000 − 20/100) =$40,000
Super profits = $(50,000 − 40,000) = $10,000
