Solution

The correct option is C Rs. 10,000
In absence of double entry system of accounting, profits can be calculated by comparing the opening and closing assets by giving the effect of drawings.

This can be represented as:
Opening Assets+Profits during the year-Drawings=Closing Assets

By putting the given information in the equation:
Rs.10000+Profit-Rs.2000=Rs.18000
Rs.8000+Profit=Rs.18000
Profit will be Rs.10000
