The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Interest on capital is provided in proportion to the partners’ capitals unless stated otherwise. Aditi’s and Saurabh’s capitals are given as \rupee 5,00,000 and \rupee 4,00,000, respectively. Therefore, the ratio is:
\[
\text{Aditi’s Capital : Saurabh’s Capital} = \rupee 5,00,000 : \rupee 4,00,000 = 5:4
\]
Conclusion:
The interest on capital will be provided in the ratio \( 5:4 \).
The interest on capital will be provided in the ratio \( 5:4 \).
