A deceased partner’s share of the annual profit is ₹6,96,000. What estimated share of profit will be calculated for the 5 months up to the date of retirement or death?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹2,90,000

Profit for 5 months = Annual profit × 5/12 = ₹6,96,000 × 5/12 = ₹2,90,000. The annual profit is apportioned in the ratio of 5 months to 12 months. Option B, ₹3,48,000, represents 6 months’ profit, not 5 months’ profit. Exam tip: use the fraction number of months/12 when annual profit is apportioned on a time basis.
