Show Hint
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Calculate profit shares in the ratio 5 : 3 : 8
Total ratio = \( 5 + 3 + 8 = 16 \)
Aman’s share = \( \frac{5}{16} \times 8,00,000 = ₹2,50,000 \)
Raj’s share = \( \frac{3}{16} \times 8,00,000 = ₹1,50,000 \)
Suresh’s share = \( \frac{8}{16} \times 8,00,000 = ₹4,00,000 \)
Step 2: Apply minimum guarantee
Suresh was guaranteed ₹5,00,000 but got only ₹4,00,000
Deficiency = ₹5,00,000 – ₹4,00,000 = ₹1,00,000
To be borne equally by Aman and Raj
So, Aman’s sacrifice = ₹50,000
Raj’s sacrifice = ₹50,000
Final adjusted shares:
Aman = ₹2,50,000 – ₹50,000 = ₹2,00,000
Raj = ₹1,50,000 – ₹50,000 = ₹1,00,000
Suresh = ₹4,00,000 + ₹1,00,000 = ₹5,00,000
