Q.2. Admission of Partner (Nishant, Yogesh and Niharika)

Working Notes:
1. Calculation of Goodwill:
Average Profit = (30,000 + 22,500 + 37,500 + 15,000 + 22,500) / 5 = 1,27,500 / 5 = ₹ 25,500.
Goodwill = Average Profit × 4 = 25,500 × 4 = ₹ 1,02,000.
Niharika's Share (1/5) = 1,02,000 × 1/5 = ₹ 20,400.
2. Cash Balance:
Opening Cash: 37,500 + Capital (60,000) + Goodwill (20,400) = ₹ 1,17,900.
