SOLUTION :
WORKING Notes:
1. Interest on Capital `=Rs7,500xx6/100xx3/12=Rs113.`
2. VALUE of Goodwill `=(Rs9,000+Rs10,500+Rs 12,000)/(3)xx2=Rs21,000.`
C's SHARE in Goodwill `=Rs21,000xx1//4=Rs5,250,` which is contributd by A and B in their gaining ratio, i.e., `2:1` Thus A's contribution `=Rs5,250xx2//3=Rs3,500,` B's contribution `=Rs5,250xx1//3=Rs1,750.`
3. C's Share of Profit `=Rs12,000xx3//12xx1//4=Rs750.`
