Solution

A need to return ₹ 2,35,000 to the firm.

Explanation:

A is required to return both the principal amount of ₹ 2,00,000 and the profit of ₹ 35,000 earned through the use of the firm’s money. This ensures the firm is fully compensated for both the amount and the profit generated from it. Therefore, A needs to return ₹ 2,00,000 (the amount used) + ₹ 35,000 (the profit earned), totalling ₹ 2,35,000.
