What will be Raju’s share in the profit of Rs. 300,000 earned at the end of 3 years from the start of the business in 1999?
Explanation:
Shikha : Raju : Jolly
= (50000 x 12 + 70000 x 12 + 90000 x 12) : (70000 x 24) : (70000 x 12)
= 2520000 : 1680000 : 840000 = 3 : 2 : 1
Raju’s share = Rs.300,000 x 2/6 = Rs. 100,000.
