(D) To find the profit share,we calculate the equivalent investment for one month for each partner:$A$ invested $Rs. 18,000$ for $12$ months: $18,000 	imes 12 = 216,000$.$B$ invested $Rs. 24,000$ for $8$ months (from month $1$ to $8$) and then rejoined for $2$ months (month $11$ and $12$): $24,000 	imes 8 + 24,000 	imes 2 = 192,000 + 48,000 = 240,000$.$C$ invested $Rs. 15,000$ for $4$ months (from month $5$ to $8$) and then $Rs. 15,000 + 3,000 = 18,000$ for $4$ months (from month $9$ to $12$): $15,000 	imes 4 + 18,000 	imes 4 = 60,000 + 72,000 = 132,000$.Ratio of investments $(A:B:C) = 216,000 : 240,000 : 132,000 = 216 : 240 : 132$.Dividing by $12$,we get $18 : 20 : 11$.Total ratio parts $= 18 + 20 + 11 = 49$.$B$'s share of profit $= \frac{20}{49} 	imes 12,005 = 20 	imes 245 = Rs. 4,900$.
