Correct Answer: Apurva's Capital A/c........Dr 2,40,000
Saloni's Capital A/c..........Dr 2,10,000
To Dimple's Capital A/c 3,00,000
To Komal Capital A/c 1,50,000


Solution : Answer = Apurva's Capital A/c........Dr 2,40,000
Saloni's Capital A/c..........Dr 2,10,000
To Dimple's Capital A/c 3,00,000
To Komal Capital A/c 1,50,000


Apurva= $\frac{3}{5}-\frac{2}{6}=\frac{18-10}{30}=\frac{8}{30}$×9,00,000= 2,40,000
Saloni=  $\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{12-5}{30}=\frac{7}{30}$×9,00,000= 2,10,000
Dimple= $\left(9,00,000 \times \frac{2}{6}\right)$= 3,00,000.
Komal= $\left(9,00,000 \times \frac{1}{6}\right)$= 1,50,000.

Apurva's Capital A/c........Dr 2,40,000
Saloni's Capital A/c..........Dr 2,10,000
To Dimple's Capital A/c 3,00,000
To Komal Capital A/c 1,50,000
