    D Only I and III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For I: Ratio of the profits received by ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ = (2500 × 12):{(3000 × 6) + (2500 × 6)}:(2000 × 12) = 10:11:8 Therefore, profit share of ‘C’ = 136950 × (8/29) = Rs. 37,800 Therefore, I is true. For II: Ratio of the profits received by ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ = (2500 × 12):{(3000 × 6) + (2000 × 6)}:(2000 × 12) = 5:5:4 Therefore, profit share of ‘C’ = 136950 × (4/14) = Rs. 39,200 Therefore, II is true. For III: Ratio of the profits received by ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ = (2500 × 12):{(3000 × 6) + (1500 × 6)}:(2000 × 12) = 10:9:8 Therefore, profit share of ‘C’ = 136950 × (8/27) = Rs. 40,550 Therefore, III is false. Hence, Only I and II follows
