(Interest on Capital adjusted)

Working Notes:

1. Calculation of Interest on Capital 10% p.a.

Interest on Ram's Capital = 3,00,000 x \(\frac{10}{100}\) = Rs 30,000

Interest on Shyam's Capital = 1,00,000 x \(\frac{10}{100}\) = Rs 10,000

Interest on Mohan's Capital = 2,00,000 x \(\frac{10}{100}\) = Rs 20,000

2. Calculation of Interest on Capital 9% p.a.

Interest on Ram's Capital = 3,00,000 x \(\frac{9}{100}\) = Rs 27,000

Interest on Shyam's Capital = 1,00,000 x \(\frac{9}{100}\) = Rs 9,000

Interest on Mohan's Capital = 2,00,000 x \(\frac{9}{100}\) = Rs 18,000
