Question 10: Two men X and Y started working for a certain company at similar jobs on January 1, 1950. X asked for an initial monthly salary of Rs. 300 with an annual increment of Rs. 30. Y asked for an initial monthly salary of Rs. 200 with a rise of Rs. 15 every 6 months. Assume that the arrangements remained unaltered till December 31, 1959. Salary is paid on the last day of the month. What is the total amount paid to them as salary during the period?

a) Rs. 93,300

b) Rs. 93,200

c) Rs. 93,100

d) None of these

Given that M pays $\dfrac{3}{7}th$ of the total cost of the car.
Let M pays Rs.3x for the car out of Rs.7x
Then, N pays Rs.4x
Given, M pays Rs.31540 less than N.
=> 4x – 3x = 31540
=> x = 31540
Then, Cost of the car = Rs.7x = 7*31540 = Rs.220780

Given that 4 times the amount received by A is equal to 6 times the amount received by B and 11 times the amount received by C.

This can be written as,

4A = 6B or A : B = 3 : 2 ….(1) and

4A = 11C or A : C = 11 : 4 ….(2)

Multiply equation (1) with 11 and equation (2) with 3 we get,

A :B = 33 : 22 and A : C = 33 : 12 (or)

A : B : C = 33 : 22 : 12 (or) 66 : 44 : 24

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Ratio of profits earned by Ram : Shyam = 4000 : 6000

= 2 : 3

If profit < 2,00,000

% of profit earned by Shyam = $\frac{3}{5} \times$ 100 = 60%

If 2,00,000 < profit < 4,00,000, he gets 20 % and 60 % of the remaining profit.

% of profit earned by Shyam = 20% + .80 $\times$ 60% = 68%

If profit > 4,00,000

% of profit earned by Shyam = 35 % + .65 $\times$ 60% = 74%

Now, for first 2,00,000 profit earned by Shyam = $\frac{60}{100} \times$ 2,00,000 = Rs. 1,20,000

For second 2,00,000 profit earned by Shyam = $\frac{68}{100} \times$ 2,00,000 = Rs. 1,36,000

Let total profit earned by them = Rs. (4,00,000 + $x$)

=> From $Rs. x$ profit, Shyam received = 3,67,000 – 1,20,000 – 1,36,000 = Rs. 1,11,000

=> $\frac{74}{100} \times x$ = 1,11,000

=> $x$ = 1,11,000 $\times \frac{100}{74}$ = 1,50,000

$\therefore$ Total profit = 4,00,000 + 1,50,000 = Rs. 5,50,000

Let A’s investment = $Rs. x$

=> B’s investment = $Rs. 1.5x$

=> C’s investment = $Rs. 0.5x$

Ratio of shares of A,B and C

= $(x \times 12) : (1.5x \times 9) : (0.5x \times 6)$

= $24 : 27 : 6 = 8 : 9 : 2$

Total profit = Rs. 23,750

Since, A is the working partner, he will receive 10 %

=> $\frac{10}{100} \times 23750 = Rs. 2,375$

Profit left = 23750 – 2375 = 21375

Thus, A’s share = $\frac{8}{8 + 9 + 2} \times 21375$

= $8 \times 1125 = 9000$

$\therefore$ Total amount received by A = $2,375 + 9,000 = Rs. 11,375$

A and B jointly invest Rs. 2,100 and Rs. 3,100 respectively

Ratio of profit received by A and B = 2100 : 3100

=> A : B + 21 : 31

Total profit = Rs. 1,040

But A gets 25 % of the profit separately.

=> Amount received by A separately = $\frac{25}{100} \times 1040 = Rs. 260$

Profit left = $1040 – 260 = 780$

Now, profit received by B = $\frac{31}{21 + 31} \times 780$

= $31 \times 15 = 465$

Profit received by A = 780 – 465 = 315

$\therefore$ Total amount received by A = $260 + 315 = Rs. 575$

Total amount received by B = $Rs. 465$

Let the total profit be P. Shyam will get 0.2P for managing the business rest 0.8 P will be divided in the ratio of 2:4:3

i.e. shyam will get 0.2P+0.8P*$\frac{2}{9}$ and Gopal and Madhur will together get 0.8P*$\frac{7}{9}$

Given that 0.8P*$\frac{7}{9}$ – (0.2P+0.8P*$\frac{2}{9}$) = 2200

Solving we get P = 9000 therefore profit madhur will get is $0.8*9000*\frac{1}{3}$ = 2400

Therefore our answer is option ‘B’

Ratio of investment of X : Y : Z = 5 : 4 : 2

To find the share of profit earned by X (or anyone), we need to find the total profit earned.

From statement III : Average profit for 3 years = Rs. 2750

=> Total profit = $2750 \times 3$ = Rs. 8250

Amount received by X = $\frac{5}{(5+4+2)} \times 8250$ = Rs. 3750

Thus, statements I and II are redundant.

=> Ans – (D)

Total profit = Rs. 1,87,200

Ratio of profit divided among Amit , Brihmohan and Chiranjeev = 1 : 2 : 5

=> Amount with Chiranjeev = $\frac{5}{(1 + 2 + 5)} \times 187200$

= $5 \times 23400 = Rs. 1,17,000$

=> Ans – (C)

Total profit to be distributed = Rs. 1,44,000

Ratio of profit divided among Akram, Bipin and Chintan = 3 : 2 : 7

Thus, amount that Chintan will get = $\frac{7}{(3+2+7)} \times 144,000$

= $\frac{7}{12} \times 144,000$

= $7 \times 12000 = Rs$ $84,000$

=> Ans – (A)
