Answer:
Step-byBoth P & Q invest for 12 months while R invedts for 6 months.
The ratio of capital employed = 60:72:36
= 5:6:3
Total profit = 98000
Profit will be divided in the ratio 5:6:3
=> P = 5/14 x 98000 = 35000
Q = 6/14 x 98000 = 42000
R = 3/14 x 98000 = 21000
Capital of P & Q will be 35000/20% & 42000/20%
=> R’s investment = Q's investment = 42000 / 20% = 210000
