Correct Answer: The share of profit of A = 500 Tk. & B = 480 Tk.

Explanation:

Total business time = (8 + 7) months = 15 months.

A’s time weighted investment = =[(3,000 x 8) + (3,000 + 2,500) x 7 ] TK.

B’s time weighted investment = 4,000 X 15 = = 60,000 TK.

So, investment ratio = 62,500 : 60,000 = 25 : 24 [Dividing by 2,500]

New, sum of their investment = 25 + 24 = 49

So A’s profit = (980 $\times \frac{24}{49}$) Tk. = 500 Tk &

B’s profit = (980 $\times \frac{25}{49}$) = 480 Tk

The share of profit of A = 500 Tk. & B = 480 Tk.
