super profit = average profit - normal profit

=> 98000 = AP  - { capital employed  x  normal rate of return}

=> 98000 = AP  - { 500000 x 10% }

=> 98000 = AP - 50000

so average profit = 98000+50000

AP = 148000

but some classes said answer is 69600 

The Correct Ans. Is 69,600. Bcos, G/W=[A.P.-N.P.]*5 Goodwill/5=[AP-5,00,000*10%] 98000/5=AP-50000 19600+5000=AP AP=69600
Arvind Ji 98000 is the goodwill at 5 yrs purchase value so Super Profit is only 19600 =(98000/5)
