Working Note: -
*1: -Calculation of Total Interest on X’s Capital, Y’s Capital and Z’s Capital
Interest on X’s Capital = Capital X Rate of Interest X Period
X’s Capital = 8,00,000
Rate of Interest = 5%
Period = Whole year(So we don’t need to add period in the formula)
= 8,00,000 X 5/100
Total Interest on X’s Capital = 40,000/-
Y’s Capital = 6,00,000
Rate of Interest = 5%
Period = Whole year(So we don’t need to add period in the formula)
= 6,00,000 X 5/100
Total Interest on Y’s Capital = 30,000/-
