B Correct answer
Explanation

Profit sharing in partnership depends on investment × time. Abhinav: 10400 × 24 = 249600. Bhanu: 15600 × 18 = 280800. Chandan: 9100 × 12 = 109200. Total ratio = 639600. Bhanu's share = (280800/639600) × 10660 = 0.439 × 10660 = 4680. The key is calculating ratio units for each partner based on their investment duration.
