Correct Answer: Rs 1,44,000, Rs 96,000, Rs 60,000


Solution : Answer = Rs 1,44,000, Rs 96,000, Rs 60,000

Profit= 3,00,000.

A's share =$3,00,000 \times \frac{3}{6}$=1,50,000
B's share =$3,00,000 \times \frac{2}{6}$=1,00,000
C's share=$3,0,000 \times \frac{1}{6}$=50,000

Guaranteed profit = 60,000
Deficiency=60,000-50,000=10,000.
A's share=$10,000\times\frac{3}{5}$=6,000
A will get=1,50,000-6,000=1,44,000.
B will get=1,00,000-4,000=96,000
C will get =50,000+6,000+4,000=60,000.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
