Question

31. A and B who are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 3 : 1 and admit c to one-fourth in the future profits, the profit sharing ratio will be (a) A 6/16 ; B 6/16; C 4/16 (b) A 8/16 ; B 4/16 ; C 4/16 (c) A 10/16; B 2/16; C 4/16 (D) A 9/16 ; B 3/16 ; C 4/16​

Answer 1

Answer:

option -d is correct

Explanation:

given below

Answer 2

Explanation:

Ratio of A and B = 3 : 1

admit C to one-fourth in the future profits

C's share= 1/4

Assume,

Total profit= 1

Remaining share = 1-1/4 = 3/4

A's new share=

= 3/4 × 3/4

= 9/16

B's new share =

= 3/4 × 1/4

= 3/16

C's share=

1/4 × 4/4

= 4/16

The profit sharing ratio=

A:B:C = 9/16 : 3/16 : 4/16

Hence, option (D) A 9/16 ; B 3/16 ; C 4/16

The profit sharing ratio=

A:B:C = 9/16 : 3/16 : 4/16
