While two or more partners would have invested money, it is not necessary that all of them should be involved in the day EXAMPLES to day running of the business. The partners involved in the day-to-day activities are called "working partners" and the Now let’s take some examples to understand the concept better. others are called "sleeping partners" or "dormant partners". 1. Prince and Mantu entered into a partnership investing Working partners earn more money as compared to that of Rs.10000 and Rs.8000 respectively. After 3 months I sleeping partners. Balwinder joined them with an investment of Rs.12000. B Sometimes, the partners also take interest in their investment What is the share of Mantu in a half yearly profit of T and only the remaining profits are shared by the partners. Rs.6000? Sharing of profits among the partners also depends on the (A) 2000 (B)4000 (C) 3000 (D)1500 Institute Pvt. Ltd understanding between the partners. However, if no special (E) 4500 scheme of sharing the profits is specified (in a problem), then Sol. (A) Prince = 10000 × 6 = 60000 the profits are shared based on the investments of the partners. Mantu = 8000 × 6 = 48000 Concept of partnership can be categorized into two parts:- Balwinder = 12000 × 3 = 36000 1. Simple Partnership: In simple partnership, capitals Prince Mantu Balwinder of partners are invested for the same period of time. 60000 : 48000 : 36000 2. Compound Partnership: In compound partnership, capitals of partners are invested for the different period 5 : 4 : 3 of time. Mantu's share = 6000 × 4/12 = 2000 Basic Formulas:- 2. Rony and Om enter into a partnership with Rs 50000 (i) If two partners A and B are investing their money to and Rs 60000 respectively.

MAKE MY EXAM - SEPTEMBER 2019 - 50 ...for abundant practice download Makemyexam app Time = 12 – x months So, C was with the business for 6 months. Hence Jai's investment = 70000 C joined the business 4 months after, B joined the business. Time = 12 – x months 5. Peter started a business with 20, 000. John joined him 4 Ratio of profits = 60 : 6 × (12 – x) : x × 7 months later with 30, 000. After 2 months Peter withdrew = 20 : 18 : 21 5,000 of his capital and 2 more months later, John brought 9 = 12 – x in 20, 000 more. At the end of the year what should be the ratio in which they should share the profits? x = 3 (A) 21 : 32 (B) 42 : 32 (C) 23 : 32 (D) 21 : 31 3. Manbir started a business with 25, 000 and after 4 (D) 21 : 38 months Shnoy joined him with 60, 000. Manbir received Sol. (A) Here, even for each individual, the capital was 58, 000 including 10% of the profits as a commission not the same for the entire period his money was for managing the business. What amount did Shnoy in the business. So, the term of the ratio for a receive? person will be the sum of products of investment (A) 72000 (B)74000 (C) 39000 (D)10500 multiplied by time period for different parts of the (D) 45000 year. Sol. (A) Ratio of shares of profit is : (25, 000 × 12) : (60, 000 Peter has 20, 000 for 6 months and then since he × 8) = 5: 8 withdrew 5,000, he had only 15, 000 for the rest of the 6 months. His term of the ratio will be Let the total profit be P, as Manbir receives 10% of (20, 000 × 6) + ( 15, 000 × 6) = 2,10,000 this as commission, the remaining 90% of P is shared in the ratio of 5: 8. John joined with 30,000 which remained unchanged for 4 months and then he brought in Hence Manbir's receipts will be 5/13th of 90% of 20, 000 more. So he had 50, 000 for 4 months only I total profit plus his commission. as he joined 4 months after the business began. 0.1P + 5/1/3 (0.9P) = 58, 000 His term of the ratio will be B ⇒ 5.8P/13 = 58,000 (30, 000 × 4) + (50, 000 × 4) = 3, 20, 000 T

Institute ⇒ P = 1, 30, 000 Hence, the ratio of shares of the profit will be Pvt. Ltd Therefore, Shnoy share will be 8/13 × 0.9 × 1,30, 2,10, 000 : 3, 20, 000 = 21 : 32. 000 = 72, 000 4.

(B) The ratio of the shares of profits is : (40, 000 ×12) : (60, 000 × 10) : (1,20, 000 × T), here T is the number of months for which C invested the money. = 24: 30 : 6T = 4 : 5 : T T/ (T + 9) = 150/375 = 0.4 This is equivalent to 1,50, 000 out of 3,75,000 ⇒ T/ (T + 9) = 0.4 ⇒ T = 6
