Goodwill for titus = 15000 (20,000+10,000=30,000 but value of business is 45,000 so goodwill 15,000)
Goodwill for Ronicus = 2900 (5000+6000+14000+4700-2600= 27100 but value of business is 30,000 so goodwill is 2900)
this is only calculation of goodwill, to write off, use new sharing i-e 45000 and 30,000
Thanks :)

Hello guys..
I need some help in Accounting (depreciation question) Paper 23 question 2c. May/June 2014
The calculation of the depreciation rate for motor vehicles

as we know that in reducing balance method dep. charge is on NBV & to get a NBV we will subtract A.dep from Cost of An Asset.
In this particular scenario cost is 700 and A.dep is 200 before charging this year dep. so NBV is 700 - 200 = 500

now simple formula:

NBV * rate of dep. = Dep. charge for this ear.

500 * x = 100

So x = 100/500

x = 0.20 to convert into percentage * 100 = 20 %

to confuse examiner has added this year dep. charge also in A.dep and gave u closing NBV that is after dep. not before this year dep.

Hope u understand :)

Thank you very much.
I got it but the thing I was trynna work out was if it is 20% then the accumulated depreciation should sum up to 200 right ?

opening accumulated depreciation is 200 but when u will find out dep. for this year i-e 100 then it will become 200 + 100 = 300 & in SOFP u have to subtract this 300(closing accumulated dep.) from Cost of vehicle... Hope i answer ur question :)
