Question : Under the Capitalisation Method of valuation of Goodwill, the formula for calculating goodwill is:
Option 1: Super profits multiplied by the rate of return
Option 2: Average profits multiplied by the rate of return
Option 3: Super profits are divided by the rate of return
Option 4: Average profits divided by the rate of return
Correct Answer: Super profits are divided by the rate of return
Solution : Answer = Super profits divided by the rate of return.
In the Capitalisation Method of goodwill valuation, goodwill is calculated by dividing the super profits by the rate of return. Super profits represent the excess earnings above normal returns, and dividing them by the rate of return helps determine the capitalised value of these excess profits, representing goodwill.
Goodwill = $\frac{\text{super profit}}{\text{rate of return}}\times 100$ Hence, the correct option is 3.
Question : Under which method of valuation of goodwill, normal rate of return is not considered?
Option 1: Average profit method
Option 2: Capitalisation method
Option 3: Super profit method
Option 4: All of these
Question : Under the super profit method, goodwill is calculated by
Option 1: Number of years purchase X Average profit
Option 2: Number of years purchase X Super profit
Option 3: super profit/normal rate of return
Option 4: super profit - normal profit
Question : From the following information, (i) Capitalisation Method and (ii) at 3 year’s purchase of super profits: What will be the amount of goodwill?
(i) Total Assets Rs. 10,00,000
(ii) External Liabilities Rs. 1,80,000
(iii) Normal Rate of Return 10%
(iv) Average Net Profit of last five years Rs. 1,00,000
Option 1: By capitalization method Rs 1,80,000, super profit method Rs 54,000
Option 2: By capitalization method Rs 54,000, super profit method Rs 1,80,000
Option 3: By capitalization method Rs 1,80,000, super profit method Rs 1,80,000
Option 4: By capitalization method Rs 54,000, super profit method Rs 54,000
Question :
The Formula for Capitalisation of Super Profit Method is:
Option 1: Super Profit X No. of years Purchase
Option 2: Super Profit X 100/Normal rate of return
Option 3: (Super Profit - Normal Profit) 100 / Normal Rate of Return
Option 4: None of the above
Question : Following are the methods of calculating goodwill except:
