📘 Partnership – CUET GT Notes Summary
Partnership is an important topic in the Quantitative Aptitude section of the CUET General Test (GT). It deals with how two or more people invest money in a business and share the profit or loss according to their investment and the time period for which the money is invested. 💰🤝
🔹 Basic Concept of Partnership
In partnership problems, the profit or loss is divided among partners based on the ratio of their capital investment and time. 📊
📌 Formula:
Profit Share ∝ Capital × Time
This means the profit of partners is proportional to the product of their investment and time period.
📍 Ratio of Profit Sharing:
Profit Ratio = (Capital₁ × Time₁) : (Capital₂ × Time₂)
🔹 Example 💡
If A invests ₹5000 for 12 months and B invests ₹4000 for 10 months, then:
A's share = 5000 × 12 = 60000
B's share = 4000 × 10 = 40000
Profit sharing ratio = 60000 : 40000 = 3 : 2 📈
🔹 Types of Partnership 🔄
1️⃣ Simple Partnership
All partners invest money for the same time period. Profit is divided according to the ratio of their capitals. 💼
2️⃣ Compound Partnership
Partners invest money for different time periods. Profit is divided according to Capital × Time. ⏳
