- Anmol and Bhuvesh invested Rs.
Question 1:
Anmol and Bhuvesh invested Rs.1500 and Rs.2000 respectively in a firm. After 4 months, they admit Suresh who contributed Rs.2250. Bhuvesh withdraws his contribution after 9 months.What would be Bhuvesh’s share if the profit at the end of the year was Rs. 900?
A. 100
B. 200
C. 400
D. 300
Feedback To solve this, it is important to calculate the ratio of their contribution first. It is given that Anmol invested his capital for 12 months while Suresh invested his capital for (12 – 4=) 8 months and Bhuvesh invested for 9 months.
So, Anmol : Bhuvesh : Suresh = 1500 × 12: 2000 × 9: 2250 × 8 = 180 : 180 : 180
=> Anmol : Bhuvesh : Suresh = 1 : 1 : 1.
Now, Bhuvesh’s share will be = {1 / (1 + 1 + 1)} = 1/3rd of profits = (1/3) × 900 = Rs. 300.
So, Anmol : Bhuvesh : Suresh = 1500 × 12: 2000 × 9: 2250 × 8 = 180 : 180 : 180
=> Anmol : Bhuvesh : Suresh = 1 : 1 : 1.
Now, Bhuvesh’s share will be = {1 / (1 + 1 + 1)} = 1/3rd of profits = (1/3) × 900 = Rs. 300.
