2. Goodwill = `2½` years’ purchase `×` Average Profit
Average Profit `(Rs. 13,000+Rs.12,000+Rs.20,000+Rs.15,000)/(4)`
`=(5)/(2)xxRs. 15,000`
`=Rs. 37,500`
Anil's Share of Goodwill `=(5)/(10)xxRs. 37,500`
Rs. 18,750
3. Profit from the date of last balance sheet to date of death
(April 1, 2017 to October 1, 2017) = 6 months
Profit for 6 months = Rs. `=Rs. 15,000 xx(6)/(12)=Rs. 7,500`
Anil's share of profit = Rs. 7,500 `xx(5)/(10)` = Rs. 3,750
4. Interest on Capital
(April 1, 2017 to October 1, 2017)
= Rs. 30,000 `xx (10)/(100) xx (6)/(12)`
= Rs. 1,500
