A and B share profits in the ratio 4:1. Total profit is ₹60,000. B is guaranteed a minimum profit of ₹20,000, and A will bear any deficiency. What is B’s final profit?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹20,000

The governing concept is a minimum-profit guarantee. First calculate B’s normal share under the agreed ratio: the total ratio is 4 + 1 = 5, so B’s share is ₹60,000 × 1/5 = ₹12,000. The guarantee promises B at least ₹20,000. The deficiency is therefore ₹20,000 − ₹12,000 = ₹8,000. Since the question states that A will bear this deficiency, ₹8,000 is transferred from A’s share to B’s share. Consequently, B receives the guaranteed amount of ₹20,000. Option A is only B’s ordinary share before applying the guarantee. Options C and D do not follow either the ratio or the stated guarantee.
