Q8. Calculate Closing Stock from the following details:

Solution –

                  Total Sales = Cash Sales + Credit Sales

                                      = 60,000 + 40,000

                                      = 1, 00,000

  the rate of gross profit is 33 1/2% on cost. this is equivalent to 1/3 of the cost of goods sold(COGS)

Gross profit = 1/3 X COGS

Also sales =COGS + 1/3 X COGS

sales= (1 +1/3) COGS

sales= 4/3 x COGS

COGS=sales X 3/4

=100,000 X 3/4

=75000

Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchase – Closing Stock

                     75,000 = 20,000 + 70,000 – Closing Stock

                     75,000 = 90,000 – Closing Stock

          Closing Stock = 90,000 – 75,000

                                   = 15,000

Q10. Calculate Gross Profit when:

Total Purchases During the year are Rs.20,00,000;

Return Outward : Rs.50,000

Direct Expenses : Rs.1,50,000

2/3rd goods are sold for Rs.15,25,000.

Solution:-

Calculation of cost of Goods sold

Total purchases during the year = Rs.20,00,000

Return outward                            = Rs.50,000

Net purchases                               = Rs.20,00,000 – 50,000

                                                        = 19,50,000

Direct expenses                           = 150,000

Total cost of Goods Available for sale:

Net purchases + Direct expenses

19,50,000 + 1,50,000

= 21,00,000

Thus, cost of goods sold for 2/3rd goods sold

Cost of Goods sold = 2/3 x 21,00,000

                                  = Rs.14,00,000

Calculation of Gross Profit

Gross profit = Sales – Cost of Goods sold

                      = 15,25,000 – 1400000

                     = 1,25,000

Q11. Calculate Opening Stock from the following information:

Solution:-

Calculate of opening stock

Net purchases = Cash purchases + Credit Purchases – Purchase return

                           = 2,00,000 + 8,000 – 0

                           = Rs.10,00,000

Net Sales = Cash sales + Credit Sales – Sales Return

                 = 3,50,000 + 12,50,000 – 1,00,000

                 = 15,00,000

Cost of Goods Sold = Opening stock + Net purchases + wages – closing stock

10,00,000                 = opening stock = 10,00,000 + 2500 – 1,00,000

Opening stock = 10,00,000 – 10,00,000 – 2500 + 1,00,000

Opening stock = 75,000

Working Notes:-

Calculation of cost of goods sold

Gross Profit = Net Sales – cost of Goods Sold

50x/100       = 1500,000 – x

X + 50x/100 = 15,00,000

150x/100      = 15,00,000

    X                = 15,00,000 x 100 /150

Cost of goods sold = Rs.10,00,000

Q12. (a) Net Sales for the year ended 31st March, 2025 is Rs.4,50,000. If Gross Profit is 30% on Sales, find Cost of Goods Sold.

(b) Net Sales for the year ended 31st March, 2025 is Rs.4,50,000. If Gross Profit is 25% of cost, find Gross Profit and cost of Goods Sold.

Solution:-

Case – (a)

Given : Net Sales = RS.4,50,000

Gross Profit          = 30% on sales

Cost of Goods Sold = ?

Gross Profit = 30% of sales

                      = 30/100 x 4,50,000

                      = 1,35,000

Cost of Goods sold = Net Sales – Gross Profit

                                  = 4,50,000 – 1,35,000

                                = 3,15,000

Case – (b)

Calculate of cost of Goods sold

Given : Net sales = Rs.4,50,000

Gross profit = 25% of cost

Let cost of goods sold be Rs.x

Gross profit = net sales – cost of goods sold

25/100x      = 4,50,000 – x

25x/100 + x = 4,50,000

125x /100    = 4,50,000

Cost of goods sold (x) = 4,50,000 x 100/125

                                       = Rs.3,60,000

Calculate of Gross Profit

Gross profit = Net Sales – Cost of Goods Sold

                      = 4,50,000 – 3,60,000

                     = 90,000

Q13. Calculate Net Sales and Gross Profit from the following information:

Cost of Goods Sold : Rs.2,50,000%, Gross Profit 20% on Sales.

Solution:-

Calculation of Net Sales

Given : cost of Goods Sold = Rs.2,50,000

          Gross Profit = 20% on sales

Let the Net sales be Rs.x

Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of goods sold

20x/100       = x – 2,50,000

X – 20x/1000 = 2,50,000

100x – 20x /100 = 2,50,000

80x/100        = 2,50,000

Net Sales (x) = 2,50,000 x 100 / 80

                 = 312500

Calculate of Gross Profit

Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of Goods sold

                     = 3,12,500 – 2,50,000

                    = 62,500

                      =   20,000 + 20,000 + 32,000 + 8,000

                      =   80,000

  1. Current Assets = Stock in Hand + Debtors + Prepaid Expenses

                          = 48,000 + 36,000 + 400

                          = 84,400

  1. Current Liabilities = Trade Creditors + Expenses Accrued + Bank Overdraft + Interest on loan

                                = 42,000 + 3,200 + 4,800 + 1,000

  1. Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
