Options:

12400

10000

11007

Correct Answer:

12400

Explanation:

                      ( A        :       A1)     :        B       :     (C        :       C1)

Investmet:      (29000   :   26000)   :     25000    :   (25000   :      37000)

Invt. Ratio:           (29   :   26)        :        25      :         (25   :      37)

Time        :           (04   :   08)        :        12      :         (06   :      06)

Profit Ratio:         (116  :   208)       :      300     :         (150   :    222)

                   ⇒            324             :       300     :                372    

 

⇒ Total profit = 324 + 300 + 372 = 996

⇒ C's Profit = \(\frac{372}{996}\) × 33200 = 12400
