Working Note: -
*1 Calculation of R’s share of Profits
Profit of 2015-16 = 1,20,000
| R's Share of Profit | =1,20,000 | X | 5 |

R's Share of Profit = 24,000
R's Minimum Guaranteed Profit = Rs 30,000
R's Actual Profit Share i.e. 24,000 is less than his Minimum Guaranteed Profit i.e. 30,000
Deficiency in R's Profit Share= 30,000 − 24,000= Rs 6,000
This deficiency of Rs 10,000 is to be borne by P & Q in the ratio of 12:8.
| P's Share of Profit | =6,000 | X | 12 |
| 20 |
P's Share of Profit = 3,600
