Solution

Step 1: Calculation of Capital Employed:
Capital employed= Total Capital Employed
= 300000+ 200000
= 500000

Step 2: Calculation of Normal Profit:
Normal Profit= 500000 * [20/100]
= 100000

Step 3: Calculation of Average Profit:
Average Profit= 150000

Step 4: Calculation of Super Profit:
Super Profit= 150000- 100000
= 50000

Step 5: Calculation of Goodwill:
Goodwill= Super profit* [100/Normal Rate of return]
= 50000 * [100/20]
= 250000
