In a partnership firm, without written agreement, A invested three times more than the amount invested by B. In the absence of written agreement among partners, in what ratio will the profits be shared?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

In the absence of a partnership deed, Section 13(b) of the Indian Partnership Act applies: partners share profits and losses equally irrespective of the capital each has contributed. The unequal investment is therefore ignored and the ratio is 50:50.
