The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the effective capital contribution of A, B, and C over the year and then determine their respective shares of the profit. ### Step 1: Calculate A's effective capital contribution - A invests ₹16,000 for the first 3 months. - After 3 months, A withdraws ₹5,000, leaving A with ₹11,000 for the remaining 9 months. **Calculation:** - Contribution for the first 3 months: \[ 16,000 \times 3 = 48,000 \] - Contribution for the next 9 months: \[ 11,000 \times 9 = 99,000 \] - Total contribution of A: \[ 48,000 + 99,000 = 147,000 \] ### Step 2: Calculate B's effective capital contribution - B invests ₹12,000 for the first 3 months. - After 3 months, B adds ₹5,000, making B's total investment ₹17,000 for the remaining 9 months. **Calculation:** - Contribution for the first 3 months: \[ 12,000 \times 3 = 36,000 \] - Contribution for the next 9 months: \[ 17,000 \times 9 = 153,000 \] - Total contribution of B: \[ 36,000 + 153,000 = 189,000 \] ### Step 3: Calculate C's effective capital contribution - C joins after 6 months with an investment of ₹21,000 for the last 6 months. **Calculation:** - Contribution for 6 months: \[ 21,000 \times 6 = 126,000 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the total contributions and the ratio Now we have the total contributions: - A: ₹147,000 - B: ₹189,000 - C: ₹126,000 **Total contributions:** \[ 147,000 + 189,000 + 126,000 = 462,000 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the profit share for each partner The total profit is ₹13,200. We need to find the share of each partner based on their contributions. **Total ratio of contributions:** - A : B : C = 147,000 : 189,000 : 126,000 To simplify this ratio: - Divide each term by 21,000: - A: \( \frac{147,000}{21,000} = 7 \) - B: \( \frac{189,000}{21,000} = 9 \) - C: \( \frac{126,000}{21,000} = 6 \) Thus, the ratio of A : B : C = 7 : 9 : 6. ### Step 6: Calculate each partner's share of the profit - Total parts = 7 + 9 + 6 = 22 **A's share:** \[ \text{A's share} = \frac{7}{22} \times 13,200 = 4,200 \] **B's share:** \[ \text{B's share} = \frac{9}{22} \times 13,200 = 5,400 \] **C's share:** \[ \text{C's share} = \frac{6}{22} \times 13,200 = 3,600 \] ### Step 7: Calculate by how much B's share exceeds C's share To find out by how much B's share exceeds C's share: \[ \text{B's share} - \text{C's share} = 5,400 - 3,600 = 1,800 \] ### Final Answer B's share exceeds C's share by ₹1,800. ---
