Explanation:-
Ben share in profit = 1,32,000 * 1/11 = ₹ 12,000
Deficiency in Share of Ben = Minimum guarantee – share in profit
Deficiency in share of Ben = 16,000 – 12,000 = ₹ 4,000
Arif’s Share in Profit = 1,32,000 * 6/11 = ₹ 72,000
Arif’s Share in Profit after bearing Ben’s deficiency
72,000 – 4,000 = ₹ 68,000
