M, N and S are partners in a firm sharing profit in the ratio of 2 : 1 : 1, N retires and M and S are decided that capital of the new firm will be fixed at ₹1,20,000. Calculate the new capital of M and S. |
M's capital ₹40,000 N's capital ₹80,000 M's capital ₹60,000 N's capital ₹30,000 S's capital ₹30,000 M's capital ₹80,000 S's capital ₹40,000 N's capital ₹80,000 S's capital ₹40,000 |
M's capital ₹80,000 S's capital ₹40,000 |
The correct answer is Option (3) - M's capital ₹80,000 S's capital ₹40,000. Old ratio = 2:1:1 (M, N and S) Capital fixed for the firm = ₹120000 Capital of M = 120000 x 2/3 Capital of S = 120000 x 1/3 |
