💡 Analysis & Explanation
[Profit Distribution Mechanics] ▼
In standard partnership scenarios, distributable dividends are allocated precisely according to the capital investment ratio when time periods are identical.
[Investment Ratio Derivation] ▼
The raw investments are 56000, 52000, and 69000. Canceling the common thousands yields a clean ratio of 56 : 52 : 69. The aggregate sum of these ratio units is 56 + 52 + 69 = 177.
[Net Divisible Pool] ▼
The gross profit is ₹76,700. Since 31% is skimmed for charity, only 69% remains for the partners. The distributable pool is 69% of 76700, which mathematically equates to 0.69 × 76700 = ₹52,923.
[Individual Share Calculation] ▼
Suresh holds 69 units out of the total 177 units. His specific cut is calculated as (69 / 177) × 52923.
[Final Arithmetic] ▼
Dividing 52923 by 177 gives exactly 299. Multiplying 69 by 299 yields 20,631.
Conclusion ▼
Suresh's exact financial share amounts to ₹20,631.
