3. Average Profit Method
Step 1: Calculation of Total Profit
Meaning: Total Profit is the sum of last years profit as
given in the problem.
Formula:
Total Profit = (Year 1 Profit) + (Year 2 Profit) + (Year 3 Profit) ( … + … )
E.g.
Profit earned by business in past
2017 - Rs. 15000, 2018 - Rs. 20000, 2019 - Rs. 30000
Total Profit will be:
15000+20000+30000=65000CR ACCOUNTANCY CLASSES - 9404300246

of the past years profit.

5. Average Profit Method
Step 3: Calculation of Adjusted Average Profit
Meaning: If any adjustment is there towards profit in any year then we
have to adjust that portion of profit against average profit and the result
will be called as adjusted average profit. It is not necessary to adjust
average profit all the time.
Formula:
Adjusted Average Profit = Average Profit + / - Adjusted Item
E.g. If profit for 2019 was overcastted by Rs. 5000/- then we
have to deduct Rs. 5000 from average profit and the
remaining will be called as adjusted average profit.
Here adjusted average profit will be :
Average Profit – Overcastting amount of profit
21667-5000=16667
