Correct Answer: Rs.86,000


Solution : Answer = 86000

Goodwill = Super Profit × Number of Years' Purchase

Rs. 90,000 = Super Profit × 2

Super Profit = = Rs. 45,000

Capital Employed = Assets - Outside Liabilities (Creditors)

= Rs. 5,00,000 - Rs. 90,000 = Rs. 4,10,000

Or

= Partners Capitals + General Reserve

= Rs. 3,50,000 + Rs. 60,000 = Rs. 4,10,000

Normal Rate of Return = : 10%

Normal Profit = Rs. 4,10,000 x = Rs. 41,000

Super Profit = Average Profit - Normal Profit Average Profit = Super Profit + Normal Profit

= Rs. 45,000 + Rs. 41,000 = Rs. 86,000
Hence, the correct option is 3.
