Answer : Option D

Explanation :

Ratio of initial investments =[ $\frac {7 } { 2 }$ $: \frac { 4 } { 3 }$ : $\frac { 6 } { 5 }$ ]= 105 : 40 : 36

Let the initial investments be 105x, 40x and 36x.

A : B : C =[105x x 4 + $\frac { 150 } { 100}$ x 105x x 8]: (40x x 12) : (36x x 12)

= 1680x : 480x : 432x = 35 : 10 : 9.

Hence, B's share = Rs.[21600x $\frac { 1 0} { 54 }$ ]= Rs. 4000.
