Working Note: –
*1: -Calculation of Total Interest on Amar’s Capital, and Bimal’s Capital
Interest on Capital = Capital X Rate of Interest X Period
Amar’s Capital = 1,50,000
Rate of Interest = 10%
Period = Whole year (So we don’t need to add period in the formula)
= 1,50,000 X 10/100
Total Interest on Amar’s Capital = 15,000/-
Bimal’s Capital = 2,50,000
Rate of Interest = 10%
Period = Whole year(So we don’t need to add period in the formula)
= 2,50,000 X 10/100
Total Interest on Bimal’s Capital = 25,000/-
