Question:

Which event does not require the valuation of goodwill in a partnership firm?

Options:

Change in the profit sharing ratio among the existing partners

Admission of a new partner

Dissolution of the firm involving sale of the business as a going concern

Introduction of new marketing strategies

Correct Answer:

Introduction of new marketing strategies

Explanation:

Introduction of new marketing strategies does not typically require valuation of goodwill in a partnership firm. Valuation of goodwill is generally necessary during specific events or circumstances that involve changes in the partnership structure or operations. Other options involve significant changes in the partnership's composition, profit sharing, or continuation of the business, which can impact the value of goodwill. However, the introduction of new marketing strategies, while important for business growth, does not directly involve the valuation of goodwill. It focuses more on enhancing the firm's marketing efforts and expanding its customer base.
