      Solution

      ATQ,

      Ratio of profit shares of 'Akash' to 'Bhanu' at the end of 2 years:

      = [1,200 × 1 + (1,200 + 600) × 1]:[2,000 × 1 + (2,000 - 500) × 1]

      = (1,200 + 1,800) :(2,000 + 1,500)

      = 3,000:3,500 = 6:7

      So, profit share of 'Akash' = (6/13) × 3,900 = Rs.1,800
