Option 4: Credited by Rs 20,000
Correct Answer: Credited by Rs 10,000
Solution : Answer = Credited by Rs 10,000
G.Ratio = New Ratio - Old Ratio D= 4/15 - 5/15 = -1/15 × 1,50,000 = 10,000 E= 6/15 - 4/15 = 2/15 × 1,50,000 =20,000 F = 5/15 - 3/15 = 2/15 × 1,50,000 =20,000 P = 2/15 × 1,50,000 =20,000 Z = 1/15 × 1,50,000 =10,000 E's Capital A/c Dr 20,000 F's Capital A/c Dr 20,000 To D's Capital A/c 10000 To P's Capital A/c 20,000 To Z's Capital A/c 10,000 Answer = 10,000 Credited Hence, the correct option is 2.
