A has an annual salary of Rs 24,000 and remained a partner for nine months. What salary will be allowed in profit distribution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rs 18,000

The governing concept is time-based apportionment of a partner's annual salary. An annual salary of Rs 24,000 is earned over twelve months, so the monthly salary is Rs 24,000 ÷ 12 = Rs 2,000. Since A remained a partner for nine months, the salary allowable in the profit distribution is Rs 2,000 × 9 = Rs 18,000. Equivalently, it is 9/12 × Rs 24,000 = Rs 18,000. The full Rs 24,000 would apply only for twelve months. Rs 12,000 represents six months, and Rs 9,000 incorrectly treats the number of months as a fraction of the annual amount without the proper monthly conversion. Thus option A is correct.
