Correct Answer: Number of years purchase X Super profit


Solution : Answer = number of year purchase X super profit 

Under the super profit method, goodwill is calculated by multiplying the super profit by the number of years of purchase. This method assesses the excess profit generated by a business beyond the normal rate of return and quantifies it over a specific period to determine the value of goodwill.

Goodwill = super profit X no. of years purchase
Hence, the correct option is 2.
