    2840
    4500
    4450
    Option D
    Profit sharing ration of A , b and C = (4200 *12) : (5400 * 7) : (6000 * 7) = 12 : 9 : 10
    total profit = 15500
    profit share of B = 15500 * 9/31 = 4500

     

  2. The investment ratio of A , B and C in a business is 4 :3 :7. If they invested their capital for 7 months , 8 months and 6 months respectively , then in which ratio they distributed their profit at the end of the year ?

    2 : 3 : 8
    14 : 12 : 21
    Option E
    Profit sharing ratio of A, B and C = (4 * 7) : (3 * 8) : (7 * 6) = 14 : 12 : 21

     

  3. A , B and C started a business. a receives 3/5 of the profit and the remaining profit shared by B and C equally. If difference between profit of A and B is rs.500, then what is total profit of the business ?

    1400
    2000
    1250
    600
    Option D
    Let total profit of the business = 5x
    profit share of A = 5x * 3/5 = 3x
    remaining profit = 2x
    profit share of B and C = x and x respectively
    3x – x = 500
    x = 250
    total profit of the business = 5x = 5 * 250 = 1250

    = 29 : 36 : 34
    profit share of A = 19800 * 29/99 = 5800

     

  5. A , B and C enter into a partnership farm. Profit share of A and B rs.1200 ad rs.1800 respectively out of the total profit of rs.4500. If investment made by A rs.25000, then ho much amount invested by C in the business ?

    1520
    1980
    2480
    Option D
    Let Ram invests = rs.x
    Hari invests = x – 1600
    Shiva invests = x – 1600 + x +3200
    total profit = 15000
    x + x – 1600 + x + 600 = 15000
    Ram invests = 5000
    Hari invests = 5000 – 1600 = 3400
    Shiva invests = 3400 + 3200 = 6600
    their profit sharing ratio = 5000 : 3400 : 6600

    remaining profit = 110x – 22x = 88x
    profit share of A = 88x
    profit share of A = 88x * 5/11 = 40x
    profit share of B = 88x * 6 / 11 = 48x
    A got in all = 744
    62x = 744
    x = 12
    profit share of B = 48 * 12 = 576
