Explanation:
Step 1: Calculation of Normal Profit:
Normal Profit= Capital employed * [ Normal rate of return/100]
= 630000 * [5/100]
= 31500
Step 2: Calculation of Average Profit:
Average Profit= Profit + Undervaluation of Stock
= 100000+40000
= 140000
Step 3: Calculation of Super Profit:
Super Profit= Average Profit- Normal Profit
= 140000-31500
= 108500
Step 4: Calculation of Goodwill:
Goodwill= 108500* 5
= 542500
