Solution

To solve this problem, we first need to calculate the ratio of the investments of A, B, and C.

  1. For the first 3 months, A invested Rs. 30,000 and B invested Rs. 24,000.
  2. For the next 3 months, A added Rs. 6,000 to his investment making it Rs. 36,000 and B withdrew Rs. 6,000 making his investment Rs. 18,000.
  3. For the last 6 months, A continued with Rs. 36,000, B withdrew another Rs. 3,000 making his investment Rs. 15,000 and C entered the business with Rs. 21,000.

The ratio of their investments is calculated by multiplying the investment amounts by the time period they were invested for:

  • A's investment ratio = (300003 + 360009) = 90,000 + 324,000 = 414,000
  • B's investment ratio = (240003 + 180003 + 15000*6) = 72,000 + 54,000 + 90,000 = 216,000
  • C's investment ratio = (21000*6) = 126,000

So, the ratio of A:B:C = 414,000:216,000:126,000 = 69:36:21

The total profit is Rs. 84,000. To find C's share, we divide C's ratio by the total ratio and multiply by the total profit:

C's share = (21/(69+36+21)) * 84,000 = Rs. 14,000

So, the answer is C. Rs. 14,000.
