Answer» tion: Calculation of firm's good will = Avg. Profit 10,000 + 20,000 + 30,000 ÷ 3 =20,000 Goodwill is 1.5 years purchase = 20,000 x 1.5 = 30,000.30,000 - 12,000( less AMOUNT) = 18,000Z's share = 18,000 × 1/6 = 3,000(Z have to PAY this amount for goodwill) Sacrificing RATIO = old ratio - new ratio. X's Sac. Ratio = 3/5 - 3/6 = 3/30. Y's sac. Raio = 2/5 - 2/6 = 2/30.(Sacrificing ration of X and Y) = 3:2. X's sare of goodwill = 3,000 x 3/5 = 1,800(receive from z) Y's share of goodwill = 3,000 x 2/5 = 1,200(receive from z). This amount will be transferred to their CAPITAL account on credit side. |
