Capital employed in a business = Rs. 2,00,000 (Given)
Rate of return on capital employed = 15% (Given)
Super Profit = Actual Profit - Estimated profit
Goodwill = Super profit × Number of purchase years
Normal profit = 200000 × 15 /100
= 30,000
Super profit = profit earned - normal profit
= 48,000 - 30,000
= 18,000
Goodwill = 18,000 × 3
= 54,000
Thus, goodwill on the basis of 3 years purchase of super profit will be Rs. 54,000.
