Correct Answer: Maanika's capital a/c Dr 2,40,000
Bhari's capital a/c Dr 1,60,000
To Komal's capital a/c 4,00,000.


Solution : Answer = Maanika's capital a/c Dr 2,40,000
Bhari's capital a/c Dr 1,60,000
To Komal's capital a/c 4,00,000


Loss=2,20,000
Maanika's share=$2,20,000 \times \frac{6}{11}$=12,00,000.
Bhari's share=$2,20,000 \times \frac{4}{11}$=8,00,000.
Komal's share=$2,20,000 \times \frac{4}{11}$=2,00,000.

Deficiency=Guaranteed profit-actual profit=[2,00,000-(2,00,000)]=2,00,000+2,00,000=4,00,000

Maanika's share=$4,00,000 \times \frac{3}{5}$=2,40,000.
Bhari's share=$4,00,000 \times \frac{2}{5}$=1,60,000.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
