Question
What is the total profit earned by two partners, A and
B, in a business? Statement I: A and B started a business by investing Rs. 50,000 and Rs. 75,000, respectively. After 6 months, A withdrew Rs. 10,000, and B invested an additional Rs. 25,000. The business ran for 1 year, and the profit was distributed in proportion to their investments. Statement II: The total profit was shared between A and B in the ratio 14:19. B's share of the profit was Rs. 19,000. The question consists of two statements I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question or not.Solution
Using Statement I, The profit-sharing ratio can be calculated based on the investments of A and B over 12 months. However, the total profit is not provided, so this statement alone is not sufficient. Using Statement II, The profit-sharing ratio and B's share of Rs. 19,000 allow us to calculate the total profit. Since the ratio is 14:19, the total profit is Rs. (19,000 × (14 + 19)) ÷ 19 = Rs. 33,000. This statement alone is sufficient to answer the question. Answer: B
