Q 3 - The proportion of partners capital in a business are 1/3 of A , 1/4 of B and 1/5 of C. After the period of 4 month 1/2 part of his investment withdraw by A .if the total profit of Rs. 8470 earned by the firm then what should be the share of A?
Answer : B
Explanation
In the starting time ratio of capitals = 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 = 20: 15: 12 Suppose A, B and C invest Rs. 20x , Rs. 15x and 12x respectively. A: B:C = (20*4+ 10x*8) : (15*12) : (12x * 12) = 160x : 180x : 144x = 40: 45: 36 Share of A = Rs. ( 8470* 40/121) = Rs. 2800
Q 4 - 7/2 :4/3: 6/5 with this ratio a business started by A,B and C . Investment increase 50% by A after the period of 4 month. What should be the share of B in profit if firm earned Rs. 43200 as a profit?
Answer : D
Explanation
Given ratio = 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5 = 105 : 40: 36 Suppose Rs. 105x invested by A , Rs. 40x invested by B and Rs. 36x invested By C. Investment ratio = (105x*4+ (150%of 105x): (40x:12): (36x*12) =(420x+150/100*105x*8) :480x: 432x = (1680x ): (480x):(432x) = 35: 10: 9 Share of B = Rs. (43200*10/54) = Rs. 8000.
Q 5 - With the amount of Rs. 4500 A started business but after some time B also join this business with Rs. 5400 investment and profit sharing ratio between them is 2:1 then find out the period B join the business after?
Answer : D
Explanation
If for the x months , B remains in the business. A: B = ( 4500*12) : (5400*x) = (54000 : 5400x) = (10:1) ∴ 10/x = 2/1 ⇒ 2x = 10 ⇒ x= 5 Thus , we can say that B remains in the business for the period of 5 months then on the basis of that statement we can say after the period of 7month B join the business.
Q 6 - The partners of a firm are A and B . A invested 3 times in the comparison of his partner. While the period of his investment is 2 times in the comparison of B . What should be the total profit of the firm if Rs. 12000 received by B as a share in profit?
Answer : C
Explanation
If Rs. x for y months is investment of B . Then the investment of A is Rs. 3x for the period of 2y. ∴ A: B = (3x*2y) : (x:y) = 6xy : xy = 6: 1 Let the total profit be rs. P . Then, P* 1/7 = 12000 ⇒ p = 84000. Hence, the prove that the the profit of the firm is 84000.
Q 7 - The ratio of investment in a firm by A and B is 3:2 . if A received Rs. 8550 share as a profit after doing charity5% out of the total profit. What should be the total profit?
Answer : B
Explanation
If X is the total profit of a firm at the end of the year . Amount of charity which is paid = 5% of rs. x = (5/100*x) = x/20 , balance =(x-x/20) = rs. 19x/20 Share of A = rs. (19x/20* 3/5) = Rs. 57x/100 ∴ 57x/100= 8550 ⇒ x = (8550*100)/57 = 15000. Hence, the total profit of the firm = Rs. 15000.
Q 8 - Geeta and Sita are the partners in the business. Geeta invests Rs 1500 and Sita Rs 2500. Geeta is the working partner and gets 20% of the profit for her contribution in the management. Sita is a sleeping partner. If the profit is Rs 475, find the share of each.
Answer : A
Explanation
Payment to be made to Geeta for her contribution in the management = 20% of Rs 475 = 20/100*475 = Rs 95 Balance Profit = Rs (475 - 95) = Rs 380 Ratio of investment by Geeta and Sita = 1500 : 2500 = 3 : 5 Hence, Rs 380 is to be divided among the two in the ratio of 3 : 5. Geeta's share = 3/8 * 380 = Re 142.5 Sita's share = 5/8 * 380 = Re 237.5 Finally Geeta gets = Re (142.5 + 95) = Rs 237.5 And Sita gets = Re 237.5
Q 9 - Ram starts a business with Re 2 lakhs. Four months later Shyam joins him with rs 4 lakhs. Hari joins them for last three months with a capital of Re 6 lakhs. The profit at the year end is Re 7400. Find the share of each in the profit.
Answer : C
Explanation
Ram's contribution is for 12 months. Shyam's contribution is for 8 months. Hari's contribution is for 3 months. Ram's contribution of Re 2 lakhs for 12 months is equivalent to Re (2*12) = Re 24 lakhs in 1 month Shyam's contribution is equivalent to Re (4*8) = Re 32 lakhs in 1 month Hari's contribution is equivalent to Re (6*3) = Re 18 lakhs in 1 month Share in the profit should be in the ratio = 24 : 32 : 18 = 12 : 16 : 9 Sum of ratios = 12 +16 + 9 = 37 Ram's share = 12/37 * 7400 = Re 2400 Shyam's share = 16/37 * 7400 = Re 200 Hari's share = 9/37 * 7400 = Re 1800
Q 10 - The ratio of investments of two partners is 11:12 and the ratio of their profits is 2:3. If A invested the money for 8 months, find for how much time B invested his money?
Answer : B
Explanation
Suppose A invested Re 11 for 8 months and B invested Re 12 for x months. Then, (11*8)/(12*x) = 2/3 Or, 88/12x = 2/3 Or, 24x = 264 Or, x = 11 Hence, B invested for 11 months.
