Solution
Goodwill needs to be valued when there is a reconstitution of the firm: Change in profit sharing ratio (A), Admission of a partner (B), Retirement/Death of a partner, and Amalgamation of partnership firms (D). On Dissolution goodwill is sold/written off (not valued freshly), and it is not calculated merely for Balance Sheet preparation. Hence A, B, D only.
