6. Mention any two methods of valuation of Goodwill.                                  2
Ans: Methods of Valuation of Goodwill:
1)      Average profits method
2)      Weighted average profit method
1)      Average Profits Method: In this method, normal profits of business of a number of years are taken into account. Such profits are totaled up and their average is arrived at. The average profits are multiplied by the number year’s purchases to arrive at the value of goodwill.
For calculation of goodwill following steps are to be followed
ü  Calculate past normal profit. Past Normal Profit = Net Profit + Abnormal loss – Abnormal Gain
ü  Calculate Average normal Profit = Total Past normal profit/no of years
ü  Calculate goodwill = Average normal profit x no. of year’s purchase
2)      Weighted average method: This method is a modified version of average profit method. In this method each year profit is assigned a weight i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. Thereafter each year profit is multiplied by the weight and find product. The total of products is divided by the total of weight. As a result we find the weighted average profit. After this the value of goodwill is calculated by multiplying the weighted average profit with the agreed number of year’s purchase. Thus the goodwill is calculated as follows:
ü  Weighted average profit = (Total Product of Profit / Total of Weights)
ü  Value of goodwill  = Weighted average profit × number of year of purchase

\ Current Ratio = 24,000/12,000 = 2 : 1

Explain the meaning of Cash Flow Statement. Mention any three objectives of Cash Flow Statement.          2+3=5
Ans. Refer Question No. 18 (or), of 2012
14. From the following information, calculate (i) Current Assets (ii) Current Liabilities and (iii) Quick Ratio.                  5
                Working Capital = Rs. 40,000/-
                Current Ratio = 2:1
                Stock = Rs. 30,000/-
Solution:
Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
Þ 2/1 = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
Þ Current Assets = 2 x Current Liabilities
And,
Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
Þ 40,000 = 2 x Current Liabilities – Current Liabilities
Þ Current Liabilities = 40,000
\ Current Assets = 2 x Current Liabilities
= 2 x 40,000
= 80,000
Quick Ratio = Quick Assets/Quick Liabilities
Quick Assets = Current Assets – Stock
= 80,000 – 30,000
= 50,000
\ Quick Liabilities = Current Liabilities
\ Quick Ratio = 50,000/40,000 = 5 : 4
Or
What do you mean by Activity Ratios? Explain the method of calculating any one of Activity Ratios.          2 ½ +2 ½=5
Ans. Efficiency or turnover or activity Ratios: These ratios are calculated to study the efficiency with which the resources of the unit have been used.

Explain the issue of shares at par, at a discount and at a premium.
Ans: Shares are divisions of the share capital of a company. There are two basic types of share capital based on the types of shares which can be issued by a company i.e. (a) preference shares and (b) equity shares. Shares of a company may be issued in any of the following three ways:

Ø  At Par
Ø  At discount
Ø  At premium
When shares are issued and payable in installments then first installment is called as “application money”. Second installment is called as “allotment money “. Third installment is called as “first call money” and last installment is called as “Final call Money”.
Issue of Shares at par: When shares are issued at the face value means when the issue price is equal to the face value then it is called as the issue of shares at par.
Issue of shares at discount: When the shares are issued at a price lower than the face value, they are said to be issued at discount. Any company could not offer the shares at discount when it is a new company and it is a new class of shares even though of an old company. The discount on issue of shares is treated as a loss of capital nature.
Issue of Shares at Premium: When shares are issued at a price higher than the face value then it is called as the issue of shares at premium. The excess of issue price over the face value is the amount of premium. The premium on issue of shares is treated as revenue profits.

Working Note:
1. Interest on Capital = 20,000 x 6/12 x 12/100 = 1,200
2. Average Profit = 8,000 + 12,000 + 7,000/3 = 27,000/3 = 9,000
\Goodwill = 9,000 x 4 = 36,000
\Gaining Ratio = 2/3 – 2/6 : 1/3 – 1/6
= 4 – 2/6 : 2 – 1/6
= 2/6 : 1/6
\Goodwill of B = 36,000 x 2/6 = 12,000
\Goodwill of C = 36,000 x 1/6 = 6,000
3. Profit of A = 7,000 x 3/6 x 6/12 = 1,750
4. Reserve of A = 6,000 x 3/6 = 3,000

How would you compute the amount due to a retiring partner or the executors of a deceased partner?                                5
Ans. Calculation of amount due to the retiring partner: The amount due to the retiring partner is paid according to the terms of partnership agreement. The retiring partners’ claim consists of:             
(a) The credit balance of Capital Account;
(b) His/her share in the Goodwill of the firm;
(c) His/her share in the Revaluation Profit:
(d) His/her share in General Reserve and Accumulated Profit;
(f) Interest on Capital
But, the following deductions are made from his/her Capital Account on account of:
(a) His/her share in the Revaluation loss;
(b) His/her Drawings and Interest on Drawings up to the date of retirement
(c) His/her share of any accumulated losses
(d) Loan taken from the firm.
The total amount so calculated is the claim of the retiring partner. He/she is interested in receiving the amount at the earliest. Total payment may be made immediately after his/her retirement. However, the resources of the firm may not be adequate to make the payment to the retiring partner in lump sum, then firm makes payment to retiring partner in installments.
