Correct Answer: 44,600 And 45,900


Solution : Answer = 44,600 And 45900

Adjusted Capital of David = 33000

Adjusted Capital of Aslam = 70500

(+) Amount Paid to Naresh = 90500

Total Capital of the New Firm = 1,94,000

David's share = $1,94,000\times\frac{2}{5} = 77,600$

Aslam's share = $1,94,000\times\frac{3}{5} = 1,16,400$

Cash Brought by David and Aslam 

= 77600 - 33000 = 44600

= 1,16,400 - 70500 = 45900
Hence, the correct option is 1.
