A and B share profits in (7:5). Total profit was (₹144000). Partner salary (₹24000) payable to A was omitted. What will be B's profit after correction?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (₹50000)

The direct answer is option A: B's corrected profit is ₹50000. First deduct A's omitted salary of ₹24000 from total profit ₹144000. The remaining profit is ₹144000 − ₹24000 = ₹120000. This residual profit is divided between A and B in the ratio 7:5, whose total parts are 12. B receives 5/12 of ₹120000, so \\(120000 \\times \\frac{5}{12}=₹50000\\). Option A is correct. Option B would incorrectly use half or another unsupported division. Option C is too high and ignores the stated ratio. Option D does not result from the 7:5 division. The salary is an appropriation payable to A before sharing the remaining profit; it is not shared as ordinary profit. Memory cue: pay the partner salary first, then divide the balance.
