    B Rs.10,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.5,200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.7,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Ratio of profit share of R, S and T:

    = (18000 × 5 + 15000 × 7) : (12000 × 12) : (9000 × 7)

    = 225 : 144 : 63

    Therefore, profit share of S = (144 / 432) × 21000 = Rs. 7,000
