Let (A,\mathfrakm) be an excellent Henselian Cohen-Macaulay local ring of finite representation type. If the AR-quiver of A is known then by a result of Auslander and Reiten one can explicity compute G(A) the Grothendieck group of finitely generated A-modules. If the AR-quiver is not known then in this paper we give estimates of G(A)_ℚ = G(A)⊗_ℤ ℚ when k = A/\mathfrakm is perfect. As an application we prove that if A is an excellent equi-characteristic Henselian Gornstein local ring of positive even dimension with char A/\mathfrakm ≠ 2,3,5 (and A/\mathfrakm perfect) then G(A)_ℚ ≅ ℚ.
