b) Rs. 340
c) Rs. 472
d) Rs. 492
Answer: c
Explanation: Total profit = Rs. 880
Since A gets 15% of total profit for management
Remaining profit
$$\eqalign{ & = 880 – \frac{{880 \times 15}}{{100}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}.\,748 \cr} $$
| A | B | ||
| Amount | 5000 | 6000 | |
| Ratio of Capital | 5 | : | 6 |
The remaining profit is being divided in the ratio of their capital
A’s share of profit
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{{748}}{{\left( {5 + 6} \right)}} \times 5 \cr & = {\text{Rs}}.\,340 \cr} $$
Total profit received by A = 340 + 132
= Rs. 472
