Correct Answer: 9,00,000: 6,00,000: 6,00,000: 7,00,000


Solution : Answer = 9,00,000: 6,00,000: 6,00,000: 7,00,000

Let the total capital of the New firm be D's Share = 1/4 = 7,00,000

1 = 7,00,000 x 4 = 28,00,000

A = 3/7 x 3/4 = 9/28 x 28,00,000 = 9,00,000

B = 3/7 x 3/4 = 6/28 x 28,00,000 = 6,00,000

C = 2/7 x 3/4 = 6/28 x 28,00,000 = 6,00,000

D = 1/4 x 7/7 = 7/28 x 28,00,000 = 7,00,000
Hence, the correct option is 2.
