If Partner I contributed expertise worth 50000 and Partner J contributed 30000 in cash, how should they divide a profit of 100000 based on their contributions?

Total contribution value = 50000 + 30000 = 80000. Partner I's share = 50000/80000 * 100000 = 62500. Partner J's share = 30000/80000 * 100000 = 37500.

If Partner X invests 25,000 and Partner Y invests 75,000, how should they divide a profit of 120,000 based on their investments?

First, calculate the total investment: 25,000 + 75,000 = 100,000. Partner X's share = (25,000 / 100,000) * 120,000 = 30,000, and Partner Y's share = (75,000 / 100,000) * 120,000 = 90,000.
