Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Rs. 36,000 Given: A, B, and C starts a business with an investment of Rs. 75,000, Rs. 90,000, and Rs. 1,05,000 respectively. After a year B gets Rs. 12,000 as the profit. Formula used: The ratio of profit sharing = Ratio of (Investment × Time) Calculations: Since the time period is the same for all three, the ratio of profit sharing will depend upon the ratio of investment only. The ratio in which profit will be shared between A, B and C ⇒ 75,000 ∶ 90,000 ∶ 1,05,000 ⇒ 5 ∶ 6 ∶ 7 Suppose total Profit = Rs. x ⇒ 12,000 = x × 6/18 ⇒ x = Rs. 36,000 ∴ Total profit is Rs. 36,000 |
