| A, B and C started a business with investment in the ratio 5: 6: 8, respectively. After one year C withdrew 50% of his capital and A increased his capital by 60% of his investment. After two years in what ratio should the earned profit be distributed among A, B and C, respectively? |
A) 2: 3: 3
B) 4: 3: 2
C) 13: 12: 12
D) Cannot be determined
E) None of the above
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
| Total equivalent capital of A |
| \[=5x\times 12+8x\times 12\] |
| \[=Rs.156x\] |
| Total equivalent capital of B |
| \[=6x\times 24=Rs.144x\] |
| Total equivalent capital of C |
| \[=\text{8}x\times 12+4x\times 112\] |
| \[=Rs.\,144x\] |
| \[\therefore \] Required ratio = A: B: C |
| \[=156x:144x::144x\] |
| = 13: 12: 12 |
