  • Distribution of accumulated profits/losses and reserves.
  • Revaluation of assets and liabilities.
  • Treatment of goodwill and
  • Adjustment of partner’s capitals.

Question 3.
Revaluation Account
Answer:
Assets and liabilities are revalued at the time of admission of a new partner. For this purpose a separate account is opened called “Revaluation Account” or “Profit and Loss Adjustment Account”. It is a nominal account.

Revaluation account is debited with decrease in the value of assets and increase in the value of liabilities and credited with increase in the value of assets and decrease in the value of liabilities.

The profit or loss arising out of revaluation will be shared by old partners in their old profit sharing ratio.

Question 5.
What are the methods of goodwill valuation ?
Answer:
Goodwill is calculated in various methods. The method by which goodwill is to be calculated may be specifically decided between the existing partners and incoming partner. The important methods are –

1. Average Profit Method : Under this method the goodwill is valued at agreed number of years purchase of the average profits of the past few years.
Goodwill = Average profit x No. of years purchase.

2. Super Profit Method : Super profit is the profit earned by the business that is in excess of the normal profits. Goodwill is determined by multiplying the super profit by the number of years purchase.
AP Inter 2nd Year Accountancy Important Questions Chapter 6 Admission of a Partner 3
Actual profit = This is the profit earned by the firm during the year.
Super profit = Actual profit – Normal profit
Goodwill = Super profit x No. of years purchase.

3. Capitalisation Method : Under this method capitalized value of the business is determined by capitalizing the average profit by the normal rate return. Out of the value so determined, value of net assets / capital employed is deducted, the balance amount is the value of goodwill.
