Answer 1

Working Note:

Distribution of Profit:

Profit available for distribution= 172000-12000-20000

= 140000

A's share= [20000*1/4] + [30000*5/10] + [90000*1/3]

= 5000+15000+30000

= 50000

B's share= [20000*1/4] + [30000*3/10] + [90000*1/3]

= 5000+9000+30000

= 44000

C's share= [20000*2/4] + [30000*2/10] + [90000*1/3]

= 10000+6000+30000

= 46000
