When shall we use average capital employed in valuation of Goodwill by super profit method?
There are some questions in practice manual solved by calculating average capital employed while some are solved using closing capital employed.

Yes, there is a lot of confusion around that.
If specified in Question (Closing or Average) - Use as specified.
If not specified then use on the basis of FMP -
If we are calculating FMP on the basis of future projection or Trend or Weighted Average method then better to use 'Closing Capital Employed'
If FMP is calculated on the basis of 'Simple Average' then better to use Average Capital Employed.
In ICAI Module/PM no consistent approach is followed, So While answering the question in exam It better to write a note "since nothing is specified in question we have used Closing /Average capital employed".
I hope it will be helpful. Let me know if you have any further doubts.
I have also posted various videos on youtube explaining various concepts of Accounts CA Final (Amalgamation, Consolidation, Validation of Goodwill) . you can check the same from below link -
