Answer 1

Answer:

Answer

(i) Capitalisation of Super Profit Method:

Step 1: Calculation of Capital Employed:

Capital Employed= 5500000- 1400000

= 4100000

Step 2: Calculation of Normal Profit:

Normal Profit= 4100000 * [10/100]

= 410000

Step 3: Calculation of Average Profit:

Average Profit= 500000

Step 4: Calculation of Super Profit:

Super Profit= 500000- 410000

= 90000

Step 5: Calculation of Goodwill:

Goodwill= 90000 * [100/10]

= 900000

(ii) Capitalisation of Average Profit Method:

Step 1: Calculation of Capitalised value of Profit:

Capitalised value of Profit= Profit * [100/ Normal Rate of return]

= 500000 * [100/10]

= 5000000

Step 2: Calculation of Capital Employed:

Capital Employed= 5500000- 1400000

= 4100000

Step 3: Calculation of Goodwill:

Goodwill= Capitalised value of Profit- Capital Employed

= 5000000- 4100000

= 900000
