Question 1
It was agreed that A would invest Rs. 8000 for 3 months and B would invest Rs. 12000 for 9 months. What will be the share of A in an annual profit of Rs. 8800?
Rs. 1600.
Rs. 1700.
Rs. 1500.
Rs. 1800.
Ans: a
The profits are shared in the ratio of money-months contributed by the partners. Money-months contributed by A are 8000 × 3 = 24000, whereas those by B are 12000 × 9 = 108000. The ratio of these money-months is 2:9. This is the ratio in which the profits would be divided. A's share = 8800 × $2/{2 + 9}$ = Rs. 1600.
Question 2
A, B and C start a partnership business by investing equal amounts of money. What would be the share of B if the annual profit is Rs. 4800, and the time for which they invested was in the ratio 1:3:8?
Question 3
Three investors, A, B and C, start a business with contributions in the ratio 3:5:7. What is the share of A if the annual profit is Rs. 9000?
Question 4
A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3 : 19. It was decided that any loss would be shared in the inverse ratio of the investments. If the total loss is Rs. 17600, what is the burden on A?
Question 5
During the first 4 months the investments of A and B were in the ratio 1:3. For the remaining months the investments were in the ratio 3:1. What will be the share of A in an annual profit of Rs. 2400?
Rs. 1400.
Rs. 1500.
Rs. 1300.
Rs. 1600.
Ans: a
The profits are shared in the ratio of money-months contributed by the partners. Money-months contributed by A are 4 × 1 + 8 × 3 = 28, whereas those by B are 4 × 3 + 8 × 1 = 20. The ratio of these money-months is 7:5. This is the ratio in which the profits would be divided. A's share = 2400 × $7/{7 + 5}$ = Rs. 1400.
