Correct Answer: Y bring Rs 66,900 and Z bring Rs 68,850


Solution : Answer = Y bring Rs 66,900 and Z bring Rs 68,850

Adjusted Capital of Y = 49500

Adjusted Capital of Z = 105750

Amount Paid to X = 1,35,750

Total Capital of the New Firm = 2,91,000

Y's share = $2,91,000\times\frac{2}{5} = 1,16400$

Z's share =  $2,91,000\times\frac{3}{5} = 1,74,600$

Bank A/c Dr 66900

To Y's Capital A/c 66900

Bank A/c Dr 68850

To Z's Capital A/c 68850
Hence, the correct option is 2.
