Section B [48 marks]
Answer four questions in this section.
Each question in this section carries 12 marks.
7 James and Dan are partners in a small company.
From each years profit, James is paid a bonus of $15000 and the remainder is shared between James
and Dan in the ratio 2: 3.
(a) In 1996 the profit was $20000.
Show that Dans share was $3000. [1]
(b) In 1997 the profit was $21800.
Calculate
(i) the percentage increase in the profit in 1997 compared to 1996, [2]
(ii) the total amount, including his bonus, that James received in 1997. [2]
(c) In 1998 Dan received $7500.
Calculate the profit in 1998. [3]
(d) In 1999, the profit was $x, where x > 15000.
(i) Write down an expression, in terms of x, for the amount Dan received. [1]
(ii) Given that Dan received half the profit, write down an equation in x and hence find the
amount that Dan received. [3]
