Question : A and B can complete a piece of work in 13 and 17 days respectively. A begins to do the work, and they work alternatively one at a time for one day each. The whole work will be completed in:
Option 1: $17 \frac{11}{17}$ days
Option 2: $17 \frac{17}{19}$ days
Option 3: $14 \frac{11}{17}$ days
Option 4: $11 \frac{11}{17}$ days
Correct Answer: $14 \frac{11}{17}$ days
Solution : Time taken by A to complete the work = 13 days Part of work done by A alone in a day = $\frac{1}{13}$ Time taken by B to complete the work = 17 days Part of work done by B alone in a day = $\frac{1}{17}$ Work done by A and B in the first 2 days if they work alternatively = $\frac{1}{13}$ + $\frac{1}{17}$ = $\frac{13+17}{13×17}$ = $\frac{30}{221}$ Work done by A and B in 14 days = $\frac{7×30}{221}$ = $\frac{210}{221}$ Remaining work = $1-\frac{210}{221}=\frac{221-210}{221}$ = $\frac{11}{221}$ So, the time taken by A to complete the rest = $\frac{\frac{11}{221}}{\frac{1}{13}}$ = $\frac{11}{17}$ Thus, the total time taken by A and B to complete the work when they work alternatively = $14\frac{11}{17}$ days Hence, the correct answer is $14\frac{11}{17}$ days.
Question : A, B, C and D are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1: 2: 3: 4. D died and his share is taken up by A and B equally. Goodwill was valued at 3 year's purchase of average profits which were Rs. 20,000. General Reserve showed a balance of Rs. 65,000 at the time of D's death. Find out the amount due to him when his capital balance in the balance sheet was Rs. 1,50,000 before any adjustment. Also, calculate the new profit-sharing ratios.
Option 1: Balance of D's Executors a/c Rs 2,00,000 and New profit sharing ratio 3: 4: 3
Option 2: Balance of D's Executors account Rs 2,00,000 and new profit sharing Ratio 1:1
Option 3: Balance of D's executors account Rs 2,50,000 and NPSR 1: 2: 3
Option 4: None of the above
Correct Answer: Balance of D's Executors a/c Rs 2,00,000 and New profit sharing ratio 3: 4: 3
Solution : Answer = Balance of D's Executors a/ c Rs 2,00,000 and New profit sharing ratio 3: 4: 3
To D's Executor A/c
(Bal. Figure)
Average profit = 20,000
Goodwill = 20,000 x 3 = 60,000 Hence, the correct option is 1.
D's Share = 60000 x 4/10 = 24000
A takes = 4/10 x 1/2 = 2/10 from D
B takes = 4/10 x 1/2 = 2/10 from D
A = 1/10 + 2/10 = 3/10
B = 2/10 + 2/10 = 4/10
C = 3/10
New Profit sharing ratio = 3:4:3
