How to use Super profit method in goodwill?

Valuation of Goodwill by Super profit method:

Goodwill = super profit*number of years purchase

Super profit = Average profit – Normal profit

Normal profit = Capital employed* Normal rate of return

Example:  Find out the goodwill of a company with the help of given information:

Number of years purchase

3

Capital employed

Rs. 2,60,000

Normal rate of return

10%

Profit/Loss:

 

2008

80,650

2009

78,000

2010

42,500

2011

90,000

2012

1,20,000


Solution:

Normal profit = (2, 60,000*10/100)

= Rs. 26,000

Average profit = (80,650 + 78,000 + 42,500 + 90,000 + 1, 20,000) / 5

= (4, 11,150/5)

= Rs.  82,230

Super profit = Rs. (82,230 – 26,000)

= Rs. 56,230

Goodwill = 56,230*3

= Rs. 1, 68,690

Example:  Find out the goodwill of the ABC Company if the number of year purchases is 2. The profit of 2013 is Rs. 95,000, 2014 – Rs. 170,000, 2015- Rs. 80,000, 2016 – Rs.1, 65,000. There are some adjustments related to profit which are as follows:

The closing stocks of 2013 are overvalued of Rs. 35,000 and there was a loss in 2013 of Rs. 5,000 by fire which was included in profit. The total assets of company are Rs. 5, 60,000 and outside liabilities are Rs. 1, 56,900. The normal rate of return is 8%. Use super profit to calculate goodwill.

Average profit = (60,000+20,000+80,000+1, 15,000)/4

= Rs. 68,750

Capital employed = Total assets – Outside liabilities

= Rs. (5, 60,000 – 1, 56,900)

= Rs. 4, 03,100

Normal profit = 4, 03,100 * 8/100

= Rs. 32,248

Super profit = Rs. (68,750 – 32,248)

= Rs. 36,502

Goodwill = super profit* number of years purchase

= 36,502*2

= Rs. 73,004

Example: A partnership firms in which 3 partners share the profit in 3:2:4 ratios according the capital invested by each partners. The remunerations of all partners are Rs. 1, 20,000 per annum. The profit of the firm is as follows of 5 years:

2003

2004

2005

1,58,000

The profits mentioned above included some abnormal profit and losses: In 2002 Rs. 10,000 included as abnormal profit, 2003 Rs. 80, 000 is included as abnormal loss, 2005 Rs. 15,000 not paid as insurance premium.

The capital employed of a company is Rs. 4, 30,000. The normal rate of return is 7%. Find out the adjusted profit and goodwill of the company with the help of super profit method.

Average profit: 6, 79,000/5

= Rs. 1, 35,800

Average profit after deducting remunerations of partners = Rs. (135,800-1, 00,000)

= Rs. 35,800

Normal profit = 4, 30,000*7/100

= Rs. 30,100

Super profit = Average profit-normal profit

= Rs. (35,800 – 30,100)

=Rs. 5,700

Goodwill = super profit* number of year purchases

= 5,700*3

=Rs. 17,100
