A and B are partners sharing the profits and losses in the ratio of 2:...
Calculation of Interest on Loan
- A granted loan of Rs. 80,000 on 1st July 2017
- B granted loan of Rs. 40,000 on 1st July 2017
- Interest on loan is not mentioned, assuming it to be 10% per annum
- Interest on A's loan for 6 months = (80,000 * 10% * 6)/12 = Rs. 4,000
- Interest on B's loan for 6 months = (40,000 * 10% * 6)/12 = Rs. 2,000
Calculation of Profit and Loss
- Total interest on loan = Rs. 6,000
- Profit before charging interest = Rs. 8,400
- Profit after charging interest = Rs. 8,400 - Rs. 6,000 = Rs. 2,400
- Total capital = Rs. 60,000 (40,000 + 20,000)
- A's share of profit = (2/5) * Rs. 2,400 = Rs. 960
- B's share of profit = (3/5) * Rs. 2,400 = Rs. 1,440
- A's share of interest = Rs. 4,000 * (2/5) = Rs. 1,600
- B's share of interest = Rs. 2,000 * (3/5) = Rs. 1,200
- A's total share = Rs. 960 + Rs. 1,600 = Rs. 2,560
- B's total share = Rs. 1,440 + Rs. 1,200 = Rs. 2,640
Distribution of Profit and Loss
- A's share of profit = Rs. 960
- B's share of profit = Rs. 1,440
- A's share of interest = Rs. 1,600
- B's share of interest = Rs. 1,200
- A's total share = Rs. 2,560
- B's total share = Rs. 2,640
- A's share in profit and interest = Rs. 960 + Rs. 1,600 = Rs. 2,560
- B's share in profit and interest = Rs. 1,440 + Rs. 1,200 = Rs. 2,640
- A's ratio in total share = Rs. 2,560 / (Rs. 2,560 + Rs. 2,640) = 48.48%
- B's ratio in total share = Rs. 2,640 / (Rs. 2,560 + Rs. 2,640) = 51.52%
- A's final share in profit and interest = 48.48% of Rs. 2,400 = Rs. 1,161.60
- B's final share in profit and interest = 51.52% of Rs. 2,400 = Rs. 1,238.40
Therefore, A's share in profit and interest is Rs. 1,161.60 and B's share in profit and interest is Rs. 1,238.40.
