This document describes the capitalization method of valuing average profits to determine a firm's capitalization value and goodwill. The capitalization value is calculated by taking the average profits and dividing by the normal rate of return, then multiplying by 100. Goodwill is the difference between the total capitalized value and the net assets. An example is provided where a firm earns average profits of Rs. 65,000 at a 10% normal rate of return, with total assets of Rs. 680,000 and liabilities of Rs. 180,000, resulting in a capitalization value of Rs. 650,000 and goodwill of Rs. 150,000.

2. • Here, goodwill Is the difference between total
capitalized value of the firm and net assets of
the firm
Goodwill=capitalized value of the firm-net assets
Capitalized value=average profit/normal rate of
return*100
Net assets =total assets-external liabilities

usual rate of earnings is 10%.the total assets
of the firm amounted to rs 680000 and
liabilities are rs 180000.
4. calculation
• Total capitalization
value=65000/10*100=650000
• Net assets=680000-180000=500000
• Goodwill=total capitalization value-net assets
=650000-500000=150000
