Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (C)
Given, Investment of P = Rs.28000
Duration of P = 8 months
Hence, Total investment amount of P $= Rs.28000\times8$
Investment of Q = Rs.42000
Duration of Q = 12 months
Hence, Total investment amount of Q $= Rs.42000\times12$
Ratio of profits = Ratio of investments = $28000\times8 : 42000\times12 = 4 : 9$
Given, Total profit = Rs.21125
Therefore, Profit of A = $\dfrac{4}{13}\times21125 = Rs.6500$
2) Answer (A)
Investment of Teena = Rs.24000
Duration of Teena = 8 months
Total investment of Teena = $Rs.24000 \times 8$
Investment of Reena = Rs.28000
Duration of Reena = 10 months
Total investment of Reena = $Rs.28000\times10$
Investment of Sheena = Rs.20000
Duration of Sheena = 12 months
Total investment of Sheena = $Rs.20000\times12$
Ratio of profits = Ratio of investments = $Rs.24000 \times 8 : Rs.28000\times10 : Rs.20000\times12 = 24 : 35 : 30$
Given, Total profit = Rs.25810
Then, Profit of Teena = $\dfrac{24}{89} \times 25810 = Rs.6960$
3) Answer (D)
Ratio of investments = Ratio of profits
Let the profits of K, L and M be Rs.15x, Rs.20x and Rs.27x respectively.
Total profit = Rs.15x+Rs.20x+Rs.27x = Rs.62x
Given, Rs.62x = Rs.10230 => x = Rs.165
Then, The difference between share of K and L = Rs.20x – Rs.15x = Rs.5x = Rs.5*165 = Rs.825
4) Answer (A)
Investment of Sumit = Rs.45000
Duration of Sumit = 1 year
Investment of Ravi = Rs.81000
Duration of Sumit = 1 year
Investment of Puneet = Rs.90000
Duration of Puneet = 1 year
Ratio of profits = Ratio of investments
= $45000 : 81000 : 90000 = 5 : 9 : 10$
Given, Total profit = Rs.4800
30% of total profit donated to charity
Amount donated to charity = 30% of Rs.4800 = Rs.1440
Remaining amount = Rs.4800-1440 = Rs.3360
Let the profits of Sumit, Ravi and Puneet be Rs.5x, Rs.9x and Rs.10x respectively.
Total profit = Rs.5x+9x+10x = Rs.24x
Given, 24x = 3360 => x = 140
Therefore, Profit of Sumit = 5x = 5*140 = Rs.700
5) Answer (A)
Investment of A = Rs.28000
Duration of A = 8 months
Total investment of A = Rs.28000$\times$8
Investment of B = Rs.42000
Duration of B = 12 months
Total investment of B = Rs.42000$\times$12
Ratio of profits = Ratio of investments = $Rs.28000\times8 : Rs.42000\times12 = 28 : 63$
Therefore, Profit of B = $\dfrac{63}{28+63}\times21125 = \dfrac{63}{91}\times21125 = Rs.14625$
6) Answer (A)
let the investments made by A and B be 4x and 5x
ratio of their profits is 4x*12+5x*10=48x:50x
=24:25
B’s share (25/49)*49000
=Rs 25000
7) Answer (C)
Let the investment of A and B be 3x and 8x
Investment of C =(3/4)8x
=6x
Ratio of their profits will be 3x*12:8x*12:6x*8
=3:8:4
C’s share=24000
(4/15)*x=24000
x=90000
8) Answer (C)
Raman invests 1/4th of total and Rohit invest 1/3th of the total
=> Raja’s investment = $1-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{12-3-4}{12}=\frac{5}{12}$
Thus, ratio of profit = $(\frac{1}{4}):(\frac{1}{3}):(\frac{5}{12})$
= $3:4:5$
=> Ans – (C)
9) Answer (A)
Investment by X = Rs. 171,000 and by Y = Rs. 243,000
=> Ratio of profits at the end of year = $171,000:243,000=19:27$
X’s share in the profit = Rs. 3800
=> Total profit = $\frac{(19+27)}{19}\times3800$
=> $46\times200=Rs.$ $9200$
=> Ans – (A)
10) Answer (C)
Let’s say total capital is T, so A invests $(\frac{T}{4}) \times 15$ and say B invests for t time $(\frac{3T}{4}) \times t$
Hence profit will also be distributed in the ratio of their investment.
So profit distribution ratio will be $(\frac{T}{4}) \times 15$ : $(\frac{3T}{4}) \times t$
or 5:t
So B’s share will be \frac{t}{5+t} = \frac{2}{3}
or t=10
11) Answer (B)
Ratio of profits = Ratio of investments = 14000 : 18000 : 24000 = 7 : 9 : 12
Let the profit of A, B and C be Rs.7x, Rs.9x, Rs.12x respectively.
Total profit = 7x+9x+12x = Rs.28x
Given, 28x = 25480
Therefore, Profit of A and B together = Rs.7x+9x = Rs.16x = $\dfrac{16\times25840}{28} = Rs.14560$
12) Answer (D)
let the total capital be Rs z and total time be y
hence ratio of profit divison for A,B,C will be
$\frac{z}{6} \times \frac{y}{6} : \frac{y}{4} \times \frac{z}{4} : y \times \frac{7z}{12}$
A:B:C = 4:9:84
hence profit for B = 9/97 x 19400 = 1800
