    A) Rs. 10000                     

    B) Rs. 12000

    C) Rs. 14000         

    D) Rs. 15000

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Ratio of equivalent capitals of A and B for 1 month \[=100000\times 36:200000\times 24=36:48=3:4\] Part of profit gained by \[A=\frac{3}{7}\] Part of profit gained by \[B=\frac{4}{7}\] \[\therefore \] Required difference             \[=\left( \frac{4}{7}-\frac{3}{7} \right)\times 84000=Rs.\,14000\]
