Answer : 3. "Rs. 59000"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Rs. 59000 Explanation: Interest received by A from B = 10% of half of Rs.50000 = 10% of Rs. 25000 = Rs.2500. Amount received by A per annum for being a working partner = 1500 x 12 = Rs.18000 Let 'P' be the part of the remaining profit that A receives as his share. So,total income of A = (Rs.2500 + Rs.18000 + Rs. P ) Total income of B = only his share from the remaining profit = 'P', as A and B share the remaining profit equally. We know that income of A = Twice the income of B So, (2500 + 18000 + P ) = 2(P) P = 20500 Thus, the total profit = 2P + Rs.18000 = 2(20500) + 18000 = Rs.59000.
