Working Note:-

1. Calculation of share of Goodwill

a. Average Profit = Total Profit / No. of Years

\(= \frac{1,20,000}4 \)

= ₹30,000

b. Goodwill of Firm = Average Profit × No. of Year Purchases

= 30,000 × 3 times

= ₹90,000

c. Share of Goodwill to Virat = Goodwill of the firm × Virat’s share

= 90,000 × \(\frac 4{16}\)

= ₹22,500

2. Calculation of share of profit due to Virat

Share of profit = Last year profit × share of profit × period

= 40,000 × \(\frac 14\) × \(\frac 3{12}\)

= ₹2,500
