Correct Answer: Debit C and D by Rs. 1,00,000 each and Credit A by Rs.50,000 and B by Rs. 1,50,000.


Solution : Answer = Debit C and D by Rs. 1,00,000 each and Credit A by Rs.50,000 and B by Rs. 1,50,000.

G.R= N.R- O.R
A=$\frac{1}{3}-\frac{5}{12}=\frac{4-5}{12}=\frac{-1}{12}$= Sacrifice× 6,00,000.
C= $\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{12}=\frac{4-2}{12}=\frac{2}{12}$= Gain
D= $\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{12}=\frac{4-2}{12}=\frac{2}{12}$= Gain

C's capital a/c Dr 1,00,000
D's capital a/c Dr 1,00,000
To B's capital a/c 1,50,000
To A's capital a/c 50,000
Hence, the correct option is 1.
