Aryan and Bala are partners in a firm. The admitted Charu as a partner with 20% share in profits of the firm. Charu brings Rs. 2,00,000 as her share of capital. Calculate the value of Charu's share of goodwill on the basis of her capital, given that the combined capital of Aryan and Bala after all adjustments is Rs. 5,00,000.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Total capital of the new firm based on Charu's capital =2,00,000×10020=10,00,000= 2,00,000 \times \frac{100}{20} = 10,00,000.

Actual combined capital =5,00,000+2,00,000=7,00,000= 5,00,000 + 2,00,000 = 7,00,000.

Hidden goodwill of the firm =10,00,000−7,00,000=3,00,000= 10,00,000 - 7,00,000 = 3,00,000.

Charu's share of goodwill =3,00,000×20%=60,000= 3,00,000 \times 20\% = 60,000.
