The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the total profit made by C and D at the end of the year based on their investments and the time for which they invested. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Initial Investments**: - C invests Rs 4000. - D invests Rs 5000. 2. **Calculate Capital Contribution**: - C's investment for the first 3 months: Rs 4000. - D's investment for the first 6 months: Rs 5000. 3. **Changes After 3 Months**: - After 3 months, C withdraws Rs 1000, so C's new investment becomes Rs 3000. - D continues with Rs 5000 for the first 6 months and then adds Rs 1000, making it Rs 6000 after 6 months. 4. **Calculate Time Periods**: - C's investment: - Rs 4000 for the first 3 months = 4000 * 3 = 12000 (capital-months) - Rs 3000 for the next 9 months = 3000 * 9 = 27000 (capital-months) - Total for C = 12000 + 27000 = 39000 capital-months. - D's investment: - Rs 5000 for the first 6 months = 5000 * 6 = 30000 (capital-months) - Rs 6000 for the next 6 months = 6000 * 6 = 36000 (capital-months) - Total for D = 30000 + 36000 = 66000 capital-months. 5. **Total Capital Contribution**: - Total capital-months = C's capital-months + D's capital-months = 39000 + 66000 = 105000 capital-months. 6. **Profit Sharing Ratio**: - C's share of profit = C's capital-months / Total capital-months = 39000 / 105000 = 39/105 = 13/35. - D's share of profit = D's capital-months / Total capital-months = 66000 / 105000 = 66/105 = 22/35. 7. **C’s Share of Profit**: - According to the problem, C's share at the end of the year is Rs 3900. - Let the total profit be P. - C's share = (13/35) * P = 3900. - Thus, P = 3900 * (35/13) = 10500. 8. **Total Profit**: - Therefore, the total profit at the end of the year is Rs 10500. ### Final Answer: The total profit at the end of the year is **Rs 10500**.
