    A, B, C and D were partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 4:3:2:1. On 01/01/2015 they admitted E as a new partner for 1/10 share in the profits. E brought ₹10,000 for his share of goodwill premium which was correctly recorded in the books by the accountant. The accountant showed goodwill at ₹ 1,00,000 in the books.
    Was the accountant correct in doing so? Give reason in support of your answer.

    Marks:1
    Answer:

    Accounting Standard 26 (AS-26) prescribes that goodwill is recorded in the books only when it is purchased. In this case, the accountant has shown the goodwill of the firm  ₹1,00,000 as an asset in the books of the firm, which is in violation of the rules contained in the AS-26, as goodwill cannot be shown in the books until it is purchased. Hence, the accountant has adopted the wrong accounting treatment.
