E 19
(iii) Capital Employee = Normal Profit X 100/ Normal rate of return
= 12000 X 100/8
= 150000
Ans. 10
Old ratio = A: B = 3:2
A surrender = 3/5 X 1/6 = 3/30 =1/10
B surrender = 2/5 X 1/4 = 1/10
A’s new share = 3/5 – 1/10 = 5/10
B’s new share = 2/5 – 1/10 = 3/10
C’s new share = 1/10 +1/10 = 2/10
New ratio = 5/10, 3/10, 2/10 OR 5:3:2
Ans. 11
Old ratio = 5:3
Shital = 1/4th Share
E 20
Since 1/6 X 1/2 = 1/12 from X and Y
X’s new ratio = 3/5 – 1/12 = 31/60
Y’s New ratio = 2/5 – 1/12 = 19/60
Z’s share = 1/6
New ratio = 31/60, 19/60,1/6 or 31:19:10
Ans. 13
Old ratio = Rakhi : Parul = 3:1
New ratio = Rakhi: Parul: Neha = 2:3:2
Rakhi’s sacrifice = 3/4 – 2/7 = 13/28
Parul’s sacrifice = 1/4 -3/7 = 5/28 (Gain)
So, Rakhi’s sacrifice 13/28th share and Parul is gaining to the extent of 5/28th share.
