*1 Calculation of Interest on A’s, B’s, & C’s Capital
Interest on Capital= Opening Capital X Rate of Interest
| Interest on A’s Capital | = | 50,000 | X | 10 |
| 100 |
Interest on A’s Capital = 5,000/-
| Interest on B’s Capital | = | 50,000 | X | 10 |
| 100 |
Interest on B’s Capital = 5,000/-
| Interest on C’s Capital | = | 1,00,000 | X | 10 |
| 100 |

Interest on C’s Capital = 10,000/-
*2: -Calculation of share of profit of A’s, B’s, & C’s
Net Profit after interest & Salary = 1,40,000
Distribution of first Rs 20,000 in the Capital Ratio i.e. 1:1:2
| Profit share of A | = | 20,000 X 1/4 |
| Profit share of A | = | 5,000/- |
| Profit share of B |
= | 20,000 X 1/4 |
| Profit share of B | = | 5,000/- |
| Profit share of C | = | 20,000 X 2/4 |
| Profit share of C | = | 10,000/- |
Distribution of Next Rs 30,000 in the ratio of 5:3:2
| Profit share of A | = | 30,000 X 5/10 |
| Profit share of A | = | 15,000/-` |
| Profit share of B | = | 30,000 X 3/10 |
| Profit share of B | = | 9,000/- |
| Profit share of C | = | 30,000 X 2/10 |
| Profit share of C | = | 6,000/- |
Distribution of remaining profit in the ratio of 1:1:1
Remaining Profit available for distribution = Rs 1,40,000 − 20,000 − 30,000 = Rs 90,000
| Profit share of A | = | 90,000 X 1/3 |
| Profit share of A | = | 30,000/- |
| Profit share of B | = | 90,000 X 1/3 |
| Profit share of B | = | 30,000/- |
| Profit share of C | = | 90,000 X 1/3 |
| Profit share of C | = | 30,000/- |
Total Profit Share of A = 5,000 + 15,000 + 30,000 = Rs 50,000
Total Profit Share of B = 5,000 + 9,000 + 30,000 = Rs 44,000
Total Profit Share of C = 10,000 + 6,000 + 30,000 = Rs 46,000
