Option 1: Rs 25,000
Option 2: Rs 12,000
Option 3: Rs 30,000
Option 4: None of the above
Correct Answer: Rs 12,000
Solution : Answer = 12,000. A:B= 3:2; C=$\frac{1}{5}$ let the total profit of the new firm be 1. C's share= $\frac{1}{5}$ Reamaining share= 1-$\frac{1}{5}$=$\frac{4}{5}$. A= $\frac{3}{5}$×$\frac{4}{5}$= $\frac{12}{25}$. B= $\frac{2}{5}$×$\frac{4}{5}$= $\frac{8}{25}$. C= $\frac{1}{5}$×$\frac{5}{5}$=$\frac{5}{25}$. Reserve= 25,000. A's share= 25000×$\frac{12}{25}$= 12,000. Hence, the correct option is 2.
