Answer 1

X – ₹ 20,000 : Y – ₹ 15,000 : and Z – ₹ 10,000

Explanation:

In a partnership, each partner’s liability is unlimited. If the firm’s capital is not enough, the partners will cover the shortfall with their personal assets.

X’s personal assets = ₹ 20,000

Y’s personal assets = ₹ 15,000

Z’s personal assets = ₹ 10,000
