Average Profit Method
Premium for Goodwill Method
Raising Goodwill in Books
Writing Off Goodwill

Eşleşmeler

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

Average Profit Method pairs with calculating goodwill using average profits multiplied by years' purchase; Premium for Goodwill Method pairs with incoming partner paying cash credited to old partners in sacrificing ratio; Raising Goodwill pairs with debiting Goodwill Account and crediting Old Partners in old ratio; Writing Off Goodwill pairs with debiting All Partners in new ratio and crediting Goodwill Account.
Each valuation method and journal entry strictly follows partnership accounting standards: Average Profit Method uses maintainable profits multiplied by years' purchase; Premium for Goodwill compensates old partners in their sacrificing ratio; Raising goodwill credits old partners in their old ratio; Writing off goodwill debits all partners in their new ratio.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the basic formula for the Average Profit Method of valuation.
Goodwill = Average Maintainable Profits × Number of Years' Purchase.
This method relies on historical average profit multiplied by an agreed duration factor.
2
Determine the treatment when an incoming partner pays a cash premium for goodwill.
Cash/Bank is debited and existing partners' capital accounts are credited in their sacrificing ratio.
The premium compensates existing partners for surrendering a fraction of their future profit share.
3
Determine the journal entry required to raise goodwill in the firm's books.
Debit Goodwill Account, Credit Old Partners' Capital Accounts in their old profit-sharing ratio.
Raising goodwill recognizes an intangible asset built by existing partners prior to any structural change.
4
Determine the journal entry required to write off goodwill from the firm's books.
Debit All Partners' Capital Accounts in their new profit-sharing ratio, Credit Goodwill Account.
Writing off goodwill removes the asset from the balance sheet across all current partners based on their updated profit-sharing proportions.

Eşleşmeler

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct pairings are: 'Cash sales received in hand recorded in a single-column cash book' matches 'Debit the cash column'; 'Payment to a trade creditor by cheque recorded in a two-column cash book' matches 'Credit the bank column'; 'Cash withdrawn from the bank for office use recorded in a two-column cash book' matches 'Debit the cash column and credit the bank column'; 'Interest allowed by the bank recorded in a two-column cash book' matches 'Debit the bank column'.
Cash receipts increase cash asset and are debited to the cash column. Cheque payments reduce bank funds and are credited to the bank column. Withdrawing cash from bank for office use is a contra entry that debits the cash column and credits the bank column. Interest added by the bank increases bank funds and is debited to the bank column.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

Southeastern Cuesta Zone (Ferrallitic soils) matches with construction of check dams and intensive reforestation; Northern Semi-Arid Boundary (Regosols and Brown soils) matches with establishment of tree shelterbelts and windbreaks; Niger-Benue Trough Floodplains (Hydromorphic soils) matches with implementation of controlled drainage structures and raised beds; Guinea Savanna Plateau (Ferruginous tropical soils) matches with mechanical subsoiling and cover cropping.
Each major soil group in Nigeria exhibits distinct degradation challenges dictated by regional climate and parent material. Ferrallitic soils in rainfall-heavy southeastern terrain require physical runoff barriers (check dams) and root binding (reforestation). Arid northern Regosols need tree shelterbelts to check dry wind erosion. Riverine Hydromorphic soils require water-level management via drainage to maximize agricultural use, while Savanna Ferruginous soils demand subsoiling to break hard lateritic layers formed under alternating moisture regimes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the main environmental degradation threat for each soil group and region
Ferrallitic soils face gully erosion from heavy rain; Regosols face wind deflation in dry northern zones; Hydromorphic soils experience seasonal waterlogging; Ferruginous soils develop subsurface lateritic hardpans.
Understanding the physical mechanics of soil degradation in each climatic zone is necessary to pair them with correct practices.
2
Pair each soil degradation threat with its corresponding conservation technique
Gully erosion is mitigated by check dams/reforestation; wind erosion by shelterbelts; waterlogging by controlled drainage; and hardpans by subsoiling.
Conservation techniques are specifically engineered to counter distinct physical agents of erosion or soil compaction.

Raising firm goodwill at full value upon the admission of a new partner
Writing off goodwill immediately after it has been raised in full
Valuation of goodwill using the Capitalization of Super Profit method
Goodwill premium paid privately by a new partner directly to existing partners

Eşleşmeler

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

1. Raising goodwill at full value matches with debited to Goodwill Account and credited to Old Partners' Capital Accounts in their old profit-sharing ratio. 2. Writing off goodwill matches with debited to All Partners' Capital Accounts in their new ratio and credited to Goodwill Account. 3. Capitalization of Super Profit method matches with Super Profit divided by Normal Rate of Return multiplied by 100. 4. Private payment of goodwill premium matches with no entry in the partnership books.
Each partnership scenario directly corresponds to its established double-entry bookkeeping rule or mathematical formula: raising goodwill credits old partners in their old ratio, writing off debits all partners in their new ratio, super profit capitalization divides super profit by the normal rate of return, and private transactions require no entries in the firm's accounts.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the journal entry for raising goodwill.
Raising goodwill creates an asset (Debit Goodwill) and recognizes the past efforts of old partners (Credit Old Partners' Capital in Old Ratio).
Goodwill created before admission belongs exclusively to existing partners.
2
Analyze the journal entry for writing off goodwill.
Writing off goodwill eliminates the intangible asset (Credit Goodwill) and charges all partners according to the new profit distribution (Debit All Partners' Capital in New Ratio).
If goodwill is not retained in the books, all partners bear the write-off in their agreed future sharing proportions.
3
Identify the formula for Capitalization of Super Profit.
Goodwill = Super ProfitNormal Rate of Return×100\frac{\text{Super Profit}}{\text{Normal Rate of Return}} \times 100.
This determines the capital amount required to generate the excess profit at the standard return rate.
4
Evaluate private settlement of goodwill.

1. Increase in Provision for Doubtful Debts → Debit Revaluation Account and Credit Provision for Doubtful Debts Account; 2. Reduction in Sundry Creditors → Credit Revaluation Account and Debit Sundry Creditors Account; 3. Appreciation in Plant and Machinery → Credit Revaluation Account and Debit Plant and Machinery Account; 4. Unrecorded Accrued Wages → Debit Revaluation Account and Credit Accrued Wages Account.
