Answer: Interest on Drawings Alka :- ₹900, Archana ₹625
Interest on Capitals:- Alka:- ₹ 34000, Archana ₹ 22000
Explanation: As interest on capitals are always calculated on opening capitals but in our question closing capitals are given after taking drawing and profit into account.
Opening Capitals = Closing Capital+ Drawings- Net Profit
Alka:- 400000+40000-100000=340000
Archana:- 300000+20000-100000=220000
Interest on capitals:- 10% On Opening Capitals will be ₹34000 and ₹22000.
Interest on Drawings(Alka):- 40000*6/100*45/120=900
(Archana):- 8000*6/100*10/12=400+7000*6/100*5/12=175+5000*6/100*2/12=50
