Question

A invests ₹20,000, while B invests ₹30,000. A receives an additional 20% for management. The total profit is ₹60,000. What is A's share?

• A. ₹51,200
• B. ₹41,200
• C. ₹31,200
• D. ₹21,200

Answer 1

Answer:

C. ₹31,200

If A receives an additional 20% of the total profit for management, then:

Management bonus for A:

$20\% \text{ of } 60{,}000 = 12{,}000$

Remaining profit:

$60{,}000 - 12{,}000 = 48{,}000$

Now divide ₹48,000 in the investment ratio (2:3).

A’s share from investment:

$\frac{2}{5} \times 48{,}000 = 19{,}200$

Add management bonus:

$19{,}200 + 12{,}000 = 31{,}200$
