Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Rs. 200000

Application

A started a trading firm by investing Rs. 10 lakhs. After 4 months, B joined the business by investing Rs. 15 lakhs then 2 months after B joined, C too joined them by investing Rs. 20 lakhs.

So,

Ratio in which the profit will be shared

= (1000000 × 12) : (1500000 × 8) : (2000000 × 6)

= 120 : 120 : 120

= 1 : 1 : 1

So,

C's share of the profit = 600000 × 1/3 = Rs. 200000
