Calculate closing stock from the following details: Opening Stock - Rs 20,000, Cash Sales - Rs 60,000, Credit Sales - Rs 40,000, Purchase - Rs 70,000 Rate of Gross Profit on Cost 33(1)/(3)%

Answer»

Solution :Total Sales = Cash Sales + Credit Sales = Rs 1,00,000
Let Cost be Rs 100, GROSS Profit `= 33 (10)/(3)%` on Cost `= Rs 33(1)/(3)`, Sales `= Rs 133(1)/(3)`
Gross Profit on Sales `= Rs 33(1)/(3) //Rs 133 (1)/(3) = (1)/(4)`
Gross Profit `= Rs 1,00,000 xx (1)/(4) = Rs 25,000`
Cost of Goods Sold = Sales - Gross Profit `= Rs 1,00,000 - Rs 25,000 = Rs 75,000`
Cost of Goods Sold = OPENING Stock + PURCHASES - Closing Stock
`Rs 75,000 = Rs 20,000 + Rs 70,000 -` Closing Stock
Closing Stock `= Rs 20,000 + Rs 70,000 - Rs 75,000 = Rs 15,000`
