Goodwill = Adjusted Average Profit x Number of Purchase of Years
*Adjusted Average Profit = Adjusted Profit of all years / No of Years
*Adjusted Profit = Net Profit+(Regular Incomes likely to occur +
abnormal expenses not likely to incur in Future) – (Irregular or
Capital income + regular Expenses likely to occur in future)

Goodwill = Weighted Average Profit x No. of Years of Purchase
= 58,531 X 3 Years
= 1,75,593
20. Note ;
1. Cost of Furniture is Incurred for business. But it is not revenue
expenditure in nature. So Deducted one should be added again.
2. Depreciation – it should be calculated to the year concerned and
next year that immediately following.
Period of the furniture usage : From July to December=6 months ;
= 10,000 x 10/100 x 6/12
= 500
3. In the following year (2004) = 9500 x 10/100
= 950

22. Super Profit Method
A)Super Profit Under Simple or Weighted Average Profit Method
Super Profit Under Simple Average Method
Step 1: Calculation of Adj.Average Profit ( Total Profit / Total no of
years)
Step 2: Normal Profit = Avg.Capital Employed in Business x
Normal Rate of Return ( Avg.Capital Employed =Closing Capital –
½ of Current year Profit)
Step 3 : Calculation of Super Profit = Average Profit – Normal
Profit
Step 4 : Calculation of Goodwill = Super Profit X No. of years of
Purchase.
23. 2.1 Super Profit Under Simple Average Method
Problem No: 6.
From the following particulars ,compute the value of Goodwilll on the
basis of 3 years purchase of super profit taking advantage of last 4
years.
Fixed assets-Rs.8,00,000 Current assets- Rs.80,000
Current liabilities- Rs.1,60,000 Normal rate of return-15% Managerial
remuneration if employed elsewhere-Rs.10,000 P.a
Profits for the last 4 years were Rs. 1,20,000 , Rs. 1,40,000, Rs.
1,30,000 and Rs. 1,50,000 respectively.
Ans : - Average Profit = 1,35,000 – 10,000 = 1,25,000
Average Capital Employed = 8,80,000 – 1,60,000 – 70,000 (1,50,000 –
10,000)
Normal Profit = Capital Employed * NRR = 97,500
Super Profit = Adj.Avg.Profit – Normal Profit = 1,25,000 -, 97,500=27,500
Value of Goodwill = Super Profit x No. of Years of Purchase =82,500
24. 2.1 Super Profit Under Weighted Average Method
Problem No: 7 .
From the following balance sheet of S Ltd as on 31-03-2010, calculate
the goodwill at 3 years purchase of super profits.
Liabilities Assets
Share capital 30,00,000 Fixed assets 20,00,000
Reserves & surplus 7,50,000 Current Assets 25,00,000
Creditors 12,50,000 Investment 5,00,000

The net profit after taxation for the past 4 years were Rs.7,85,00, Rs.
8,45,000, Rs. 8,50,000, Rs. 8,60,000 respectively. Normal rate of return
on the average capital employed is 20%
Ans : Profit of 4 years / Taken Weights = Weighted Average Profit = 84,65,000/ 10 =,8,46,500
Adjusted Weighted Average Profit = Avg Profit – Interest on Investment = 8,46,500-40,000 =
8,06,500, Capital Employed = Fixed + Current - Creditors
:Average Capital employed = Closing capital Employed – ½ of Current year Profit
32,50,000 -, 4,10,000
Normal Profit = 28,40,000 * 20% = 5,68,000
Super Profit = Average Profit – Normal Profit = 2,38,500
Goodwill = Super Profit X No of Years of Purchase = 7,15,500
