6. 6 Goodwill Valuation Average Method: This method is divided into two sub-division. Simple Average: In this process, goodwill evaluation is done by calculating the average profit by the number of years it is called years purchase. It can be calculated by using the formula. Goodwill = Average Profit x No. of years of purchase. Question Hindustan Unilever Limited’s profits is based on last 5 years profit. Profits after Tax for the year ending, Years Amount (in Rs. Cr) March 31st 2018 5237 March 31st 2019 6036 March 31st 2020 6738 March 31st 2021 7954 March 31st 2022 8818 (a) During the year ending 31st March 2019 , an asset was sold at a gain of 1000 (b) During the year 2021 a machine got destroyed in an accident and 2400 was written off as loss (c) Profits of year ending March 31st 2022 included a non-recurring income of 1500. Calculate goodwill based on 2 years purchase of average profit.

Calculation of Final Profits Adjustments 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Profits after Tax 5273 6036 6738 7954 8818 Add: 2400 (Abnormal loss) Less: (1000) (Abnormal gain) (1500) (Non-recurring gain) Final Profits after all Adjustments 5273 5036 6738 10354 7318 2. Calculation of Adjusted Average Profits Adding profits of consecutive years = 5273+5036+6738+10354+7318/5 = 34,719/5 = 6,943.8 (in Rs. Cr) 3. Calculation of Goodwill Goodwill on purchase of 2 years= 6,943.8 x 2 = 13,888 (in Rs Cr)

8. 8 Weighted Average: Here, last year’s profit is calculated by a specific number of weights. This technique is used when there is a change in profits and giving high importance to the present year’s profit. Goodwill = Weighted Average Profit x No. of years’ of purchase, where Weighted Average Profit = Sum of Profits multiplied by weights/ Sum of weight Question Hindustan Unilever Limited’s profits is based on last 5 years profit. Profits after Tax for the year ending, Years Amount (in Rs. Cr) Weights Assigned March 31st 2018 5237 1 March 31st 2019 6036 2 March 31st 2020 6738 3 March 31st 2021 7954 4 March 31st 2022 8818 5 (a) During the year ending 31st March 2019 , an asset was sold at a gain of 1000/- (b) During the year 2021 a machine got destroyed in an accident and 2400/- was written off as loss (c) Profits of year ending March 31st 2022 included a non-recurring income of 1500/- Calculate goodwill based on 2 years purchase of weighted average profit.

Calculation of Adjusted Average Profit 9,073+8,036+9,738+13,354+12,038/5= 52239/5=10,448 ( in Rs. Cr) 3. Calculation of Average Capital Employed Average Capital Employed= Total Assets- Outsiders Liability- ½ of Current Years’ Profit Average Capital Employed= 69737- 14124- 4409= 51,204( in Rs. Cr) 4. Calculation of Normal Profit Normal Profit= Average Capital Employed x Normal rate of Return Normal Profit= 51,204 x 20.19%= 10,338( in Rs. Cr)

12. 12 5. Calculation of Super Profit Super Profit= Adjusted Average Profit- Normal Profit Super Profit= 10,448-10,338= 110 ( in Rs. Cr) 6. Calculation of Goodwill Goodwill on purchase of 3 years = 110 x 3 = 330 ( in Rs. Cr) Annuity Method: The average super profit is taken as an annuity value over a definite number of years. A discounted amount of super profit calculates the current value of an annuity at the given rate of interest. Question Hindustan Unilever Limited’s profits is based on last 5 years profit.

14. 14 5. Calculation of Super Profit Super Profit= Adjusted Average Profit- Normal Profit Super Profit= 10,448-10,338= 110 ( in Rs. Cr) 6. Calculation of Annuity Factor Rate of Return = 20.19% No of Years = 5 years Year PvF Annuity Factor 1. 1/(1+0.2019)1 = 0.832 2. 1/(1+0.2019)2 = 0.692 3. 1/(1+0.2019)3 = 0.576 4. 1/(1+0.2019)4 = 0.479 5. 1/(1+0.2019)5 = 0.399 Total = 2.978 :. The present value of an annuity of Rs. 1 for 5 years at 20.19% NRR is Rs. 2.978 7. Valuation of Goodwill Value of Goodwill = Super Profit x Value of Annuity = 110 x 2.978 = 327.58 ( in Rs. Cr)

15. 15 Capitalisation Method: Under this method, goodwill can be evaluated by two methods. Capitalisation of Average Profit In this process, goodwill is measured by subtracting the original capital applied from the capitalised amount of the average profits based on the average return rate. Question Hindustan Unilever Limited’s profits is based on last 5 years profit. The Capital employed in the business is 29200 Cr (assumption) and the normal rate of return is 20.19%.

Calculation of Final Profits Adjustments 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Profits after Tax 5273 6036 6738 7954 8818 Add: 2400 (Abnormal loss) Less: (1000) (Abnormal gain) (1500) (Non-recurring gain) Final Profits after all Adjustments 5273 5036 6738 10354 7318 2. Calculation of Adjusted Average Profits Adding profits of consecutive years = 5273+5036+6738+10354+7318/5 = 34,719/5 = 6,943.8 (in Rs. Cr) 3. Calculation of Value of Firm Value of Firm= (Average Profit/ Normal Rate of Return) x 100 = (6943.80/20.19) x 100 = 34300.00 (in Rs. Cr) 4. Calculation of Goodwill Goodwill= Value of Firm – Capital Employed Goodwill= 34300- 29200 = 5100(in Rs. Cr)

Goodwill = Super Profits x (100/ Normal Rate of Return) Question Hindustan Unilever Limited’s profits is based on last 5 years profit. Normal Rate of return is 20.19% Profits after Tax for the year ending, Years Amount (in Rs. Cr) March 31st 2018 5237 March 31st 2019 6036 March 31st 2020 6738 March 31st 2021 7954 March 31st 2022 8818 (a) During the year ending 31st March 2019 , assets were sold at a gain of 1000.

(d) Rent received from land annually is 3000. (e) Profits of 2018 and 2022 is reduced by 800 and 1720 respectively due to stock destroyed by fire. Calculate goodwill using Capitalisation of Super Profit Method.

19. 19 5. Calculation of Super Profit Super Profit= Adjusted Average Profit- Normal Profit Super Profit= 10,448-10,338= 110 ( in Rs. Cr) 6. Calculation of Goodwill Goodwill= Super Profits x (100/ Normal Rate of Return) Goodwill= 110 x (100/20.19) Goodwill= 544 ( in Rs. Cr)

20. 20 Conclusion It is frequently necessary to value goodwill for a variety of reasons, including sales and business acquisitions.
