A fair rate of return on investment is 15% p.a

(a) A firm earned profits of `80,000, `1,00,000, `1,20,000 and `1,80,000 during 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 respectively. The firm has capital investment of `5,00,000. A fair rate of return on investment is 15% p.a. Calculate goodwill of the firm based on three years’ purchase of average super profits of last four years.

(b) Kabir and Farid are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 7:3. Kabir surrenders 2/10th from his share and Farid surrenders 1/10th from his share in favor of Jyoti, a new partner. Calculate new profit sharing ratio and sacrificing ratio.

Hint
Accounts & Finance"Since, Kabir and Farid shared the profits and losses in the ratio of 7:3, which is 7x and 3x.The new share = (7x - (1/5)*7x) = (28/5)x.Similarly, Farid surrenders 1/10th (or 1/10th) from his share to Jyoti. Therefore, his new share will be (3x - (1/10)*3x) = (27/10)x.Jyoti's share will be (1/5)*7x + (1/10)*3x = (11/10)x.The new profit sharing ratio will be (28/5)x : (27/10)x...
