    C 340 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 360 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Investment Ratio: Ravi: Suman = 4000: 8000 = 1:2. Total Profit= Rs. 900. Ravi's Management Share= 900 x 10% = 90 Rs. Remaining Profit= 900-90 =810 Rs. Proportional Distribution= Ratio = 1: 2. Total Ratio Units= 1+2 = 3. Ravi's Share of Remaining Profit= 810 ×1/3 = 270 Rs. Total Amount Received by Ravi= 90+270 = 360 Rs.
