Initial investments:
A = ₹4200, B = ₹8400, C = ₹5400
Profit after 1st year = ₹6000 (divided in investment ratio)
Formula used:
Profit ratio ∝ Investment × Time
Calculation:
Initial ratio = 4200 : 8400 : 5400 = 7 : 14 : 9
Total parts = 7 + 14 + 9 = 30
Profits after 1st year:
A = 6000 × 7/30 = ₹1400
B = 6000 × 14/30 = ₹2800
C = 6000 × 9/30 = ₹1800
New investments in 2nd year:
A = 4200 + 1400 = ₹5600
B = 8400 + 2800 = ₹11200
C = 5400 + 1800 = ₹7200
New ratio = 5600 : 11200 : 7200 = 7 : 14 : 9
∴ Ratio of profit at the end of next year = 7 : 14 : 9
