Working Notes:

1. Calculation of Manager’s Commission

Profit for making Managers’ Commission = 2,40,000 + 60,000 (Y’s Salary) = ₹3,00,000

Manager’s Commission = ₹(3,00,000 x \(\frac 5{100}\)) = ₹15,000

2. Calculation of Interest on Capital

Interest on X's Capital A/c = ₹(8,00,000 x \(\frac 5{100}\)) = ₹40,000

Interest on Y's Capital A/c = ₹(6,00,000 x \(\frac 5{100}\)) = ₹30,000

3. Calculation of Profit Share of each Partner

Profit available for distribution = 2,85,000 − 60,000 − 70,000 = ₹1,55,000

X's Share of Profit = ₹(1,55,000 x \(\frac 35\)) = ₹93,000

Y's Share of Profit = ₹(1,55,000 x \(\frac 25\)) = ₹62,000
