Correct Answer: Goodwill is adjusted between partners through capital account


Solution : Answer (3) Goodwill is adjusted between partners through a capital account.

On the retirement of a partner, goodwill is adjusted between partners through capital accounts. This means that any increase or decrease in the value of goodwill is distributed among the remaining partners in their respective capital accounts, ensuring that the retiring partner's share of goodwill is appropriately accounted for in the partnership.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
