Correct Answer:  Cr A by Rs 12,000, Dr B by Rs 4000 and Dr C by Rs 8,000


Solution : Answer =  Cr A by Rs 12,000, Dr B by Rs 4,000 and Dr C by Rs 8,000

Sr = OR – NR 

A = 7/12-8/15 = 3/60x 2,40,000 = 12000

B = 3/12- 4/15 = 15-16/60 = -1/60x 2,40,000 = 4000

C = 2/12- 3/15 = 10-12/60 = -2/60x 2,40,000 = 8000

B's Capital A/c Dr 4000

C's Capital A/c Dr 8000

To A's Capital A/c  12000
Hence, the correct option is 1.
