X and Y are partners with capital of Rs.50,000 each. They admit Z as a partner with 1/4th share in the profits of the firm. Z brings in Rs.80,000 as his share of capital. The Profit and Loss Account showed a credit balance of Rs.40,000 as on date of admission of Z. Give necessary Journal entries to record the goodwill.
Capitalised value of the firm on the basis of Z'* share = 80,000 4/1 = Rs. 3,20,000
Goodwill = Capitalised value of the firm - Total capital after Z'* admission
= 3,20 ,000 - 2,20, 000
= Rs. 1,00,000
