WN 1 Calculation of Commission

Commission to X = 10% of Net Profit after partners’ salaries but before charging such commission

Profit after Partners’ Salaries = 4,20,000 ` 1,45,000 =  ` 2,75,000

Commission to X	= Profit after Partners’ Salaries × Rate of commission / 100
	= 2,75,000 ×  10 /100= 27,500

Commission to Y = 10% of Net Profit after charging Commission and Partners’ Salaries

Profit after commission and partners’ salaries = 4,20,000- ` 1,45,000- ` 27,500 =  ` 2,47,500

Commission to Y	= Profit after commission and partners’ salaries × Rate of commission / 100+Rate
	= 2,45,500 ×  10 /100+10= 22,500

WN 2 Calculation of Profit Share of each Partner

Profit available for distribution = 4,20,000- ` 1,45,000 -` 50,000 =  `2,25,000

Profit sharing ratio = 1 : 1

 Profit share of each X and Y = 2,25,000× 1/2
