Capital on March 31

24,000

18,000

Add: Drawings

3,600

4,500

2,700

Less: Profit (3:2:1)

(12,000)

(6,000)

Capital April 01, 2012

9,600

10,500

8,700

Here, Interest on Capital = `"Opening Capital" × "Rate"/100`

Ram’s = `9600 xx 5/100 = "Rs"   480`

Shyam’s = `10500 xx 5/100 = "Rs"  525`

Mohan's = `8700 xx 5/100 = "Rs"  435`
