Correct Answer: X Rs 42,000, Y Rs 28,000, Z Rs 20,000


Solution : Answer = X Rs 42,000, Y Rs 28,000, Z Rs 20,000

Profit=90,000
X's share=$90,000 \times \frac{3}{6}$=45,000
Y's share=$90,000 \times \frac{2}{6}$=30,000
Z's share=$90,000 \times \frac{1}{6}$=15000

Z's guarantee=20,000
Deficiency=20,000-15,000=5,000
X's share=$5000 \times \frac{3}{5}$=3000
=45000-3000=42,000
Y's share=30,000-2,000=28,000.
Z's share=15,000+3,000+2,000=20,000.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
