Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

For computing the implied goodwill, first, we have to calculate the total partners capital and total firm capital

Total partners capital = $80,000 + $40,000 + $36,000

                                    = $156,000

Now the total firm capital would be

= $36,000 ÷ 20%

= $180,000

Now the implied goodwill would be

= $180,000 - $156,000

= $24,000
