The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Interest on capital for Emily:
Capital = ₹ 10,00,000, Rate = 10% p.a., Period = 6 months (Oct–Mar)
Interest = \( 10,00,000 \times 10% \times \frac{6}{12} = ₹ 50,000 \)
Remaining Profit = ₹ 7,50,000 – ₹ 1,50,000 (Interest to all three partners) = ₹ 6,00,000
Profit-sharing is equal among Emily, Flora, and Ginni. So, Emily’s share = \( \frac{6,00,000}{3} = ₹ 2,00,000 \)
Total amount to Emily = ₹ 50,000 + ₹ 2,00,000 = ₹ 2,50,000 Final Answer: ₹ 2,50,000
Capital = ₹ 10,00,000, Rate = 10% p.a., Period = 6 months (Oct–Mar)
Interest = \( 10,00,000 \times 10% \times \frac{6}{12} = ₹ 50,000 \)
Remaining Profit = ₹ 7,50,000 – ₹ 1,50,000 (Interest to all three partners) = ₹ 6,00,000
Profit-sharing is equal among Emily, Flora, and Ginni. So, Emily’s share = \( \frac{6,00,000}{3} = ₹ 2,00,000 \)
Total amount to Emily = ₹ 50,000 + ₹ 2,00,000 = ₹ 2,50,000 Final Answer: ₹ 2,50,000
