A and B share profits in the ratio 2:3. Profit before appropriations is ₹50,000. A receives a salary of ₹12,000 and B receives a salary of ₹8,000. What is A’s final total share?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹24,000

Salary is an appropriation of profit and must be deducted before the remaining profit is divided in the agreed ratio. Total salaries are ₹12,000 + ₹8,000 = ₹20,000. The profit left for distribution is therefore ₹50,000 − ₹20,000 = ₹30,000. A’s ratio is 2 out of a total of 2 + 3 = 5 parts, so A’s share of the residual profit is ₹30,000 × 2/5 = ₹12,000. A also receives the salary of ₹12,000. Hence A’s final total share is ₹12,000 + ₹12,000 = ₹24,000. Option B ignores the separate salary calculation, C overstates the result, and D represents only the combined salaries rather than A’s final entitlement.
