Correct Answer: Rs.22,50,000


Solution : Normal Profit = Capital employed X Normal rate of return = Rs.40,00,000 X 8% = Rs.3,20,000
Average Profit = Rs.5,00,000
Super Profit = Average Profit - Normal Profit = Rs.5,00,000 - Rs.3,20,000 = Rs.1,80,000
Goodwill = Super Profit X 100/Normal rate of return = Rs.1,80,000 X 100/8 = Rs.22.50,000.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
