    Solution

    Investment of 'Anil' after one year = 5000 x 1.2 = Rs.6000 And, Investment of 'Binod' after one year = 8000 x 1.1 = Rs. 8,800 Ratio of profit shares of 'Anil' and 'Binod' = (5000 x 12 + 6000 x 12):(8000 x 12 + 8800 X 12) = 11000:16800 = 55:84 Let the profit share of 'Anil' and 'Binod' be Rs.'55x' and Rs.'84x', individually. ATQ, 84x - 55x = 464 Or, 29x = 464 So, 'x' = 16 So, profit share of 'Anil'= 55x = 55 x 16 = Rs.880
