Purchase Rs. 12,00,000,  Sales Rs. 13,00,000,  Gross profit 33 1/3% of Cost

Because we do not know the cost of goods sold, we have to derive that figure (cost of goods sold)  to arrive at the figure of Gross Profit.


Alternatively we can calculate gross profit by finding out the Gross Profit % on sales from the Gross Profit % on cost.

                              33 1/3% of Cost => 25% of Sales (Or) 1/3 of Cost => 1/4 of sales


Opening Stock + Net Purchases - (Net Sales - Gross Profit) - Abnormal Loss = Closing Stock

Opening Stock + Net Purchases = 12,00,000,  Net Sales = 13,00,000,  Gross Profit = Net Sales * 25%

Opening Stock + Net Purchases - (Net Sales - Gross Profit) - Abnormal Loss = Closing Stock
==>12,00,000 - [13,00,000 - (13,00,000 * 25%)] = Closing stock
==>12,00,000 - [13,00,000 - 3,25,000] = Closing stock
==>12,00,000 - 9,75,000 = Closing stock
==>Closing stock = 2,25,000

Freedom Institute answered
The correct answer is c) Rs. 25,000.
Step 1: Calculate the cost price (C.P.):
Cost Price (C.P.) = Sales / (1 + Margin Percentage) = 90,000 / 1.20 = 75,000
Step 2: Calculate the closing inventory:
Closing Inventory = Goods Purchased - COGS = 1,00,000 - 75,000 = 25,000

Poonam Reddy answered
Accounting Equation to find out the cost of goods sold is :
 
Cost of Goods sold = Opening stock + Purchases - Closing Stock
 
Gross Profit earned is 25% on cost. 
Let us assume cost is Rs.100
GP will @25% on cost i.e. Rs.25
Hence sales becomes cost of goods sold + Profit i.e. Rs.100 + Rs.25= Rs.125
Therefore Gross Profit on sales will be =  Gross Profit /  Sales * 100
 
Profit on sales = Rs.25 / Rs.125 * 100 i.e 20% on Sales 
 
In the given problem Sales is Rs. 522000
Hence Gross Profit will be 20% of Rs.522000 i.e. Rs.104400
Cost of Goods Sold = Rs.522000 - Rs.104400
Cost of goods sold = Rs.417600
 
Therefore 
Rs.417600 = Rs.70000 + Rs.416000 - Closing stock 
Closing stock = Rs.486000 - Rs.417600
Closing Stock = Rs.68400

Lekshmi Mehta answered
Given:
Purchases = Rs. 1,10,000
Return outward = Rs. 10,000
Goods given away as charity = Rs. 1,500
Goods distributed as sample = Rs. 1,000

To find: Net purchases

Explanation:
Net purchases is the value of goods purchased by a business after deducting purchase returns, goods given away as charity and goods distributed as samples.

Net purchases = Purchases - Return outward - Goods given away as charity - Goods distributed as sample

Substituting the given values, we get:

Net purchases = 1,10,000 - 10,000 - 1,500 - 1,000
Net purchases = Rs. 97,500

Therefore, the amount of net purchases is Rs. 97,500 (Option A).

Opening Stock Rs. 40,000
Closing Stock Rs. 50,000
Purchases Rs. 5,50,000
Return outward Rs. 5,000
Return inward Rs. 20,000
Carriage inward Rs. 5,000

Arjun Singhania answered
Cost of goods sold(net)= Opening stock + Net purchases + direct exp. - closing stock   
Substitute all values in the above formula, 
Cost of goods sold(net) = 30000 + 545000 + 5000 - 40000                                       
                                      = INR 540000  
 Now question says profit is 20% of net sales which means profit is 1/5th of net sales. To be more clear  ,  1= profit and 5 = net sales in the above fraction...   
So what is cost? 
Cost = net sales - profit          
=  5 - 1          
= 4 
Which we can say, that profit is 1/4th on cost of net sales... 
So profit will be =   540000(cost of net sales) * 1/4th                             
                         = INR 135000  
 So now the Net sales will be = cost of net sales + profit                                                
                                               = 540000  +135000            
Net sales                               = INR 675000                             
now gross sales will be   =  Net sales + returns                                        
                                       =  675000 + 20000 
Gross sales                    =  INR 695000

Calculate the value of purchase through following details :

Calculation of Purchases

To calculate the value of purchases, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases = Opening Stock + Net Purchases - Closing Stock

Where,

Net Purchases = Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = Sales - Gross Profit Margin

Given,

Opening Stock = Rs. 20,000
Sales = Rs. 1,50,000
Gross profit Margin = 20% of Sales
Closing Stock = Rs. 30,000

Calculation of Gross Profit Margin

Gross Profit Margin = 20% of Sales
= 20/100 * 1,50,000
= Rs. 30,000

Calculation of COGS

COGS = Sales - Gross Profit Margin
= 1,50,000 - 30,000
= Rs. 1,20,000

Calculation of Purchases

Purchases = Opening Stock + Net Purchases - Closing Stock
= 20,000 + 1,20,000 - 30,000
= Rs. 1,10,000

Therefore, the value of purchases is Rs. 1,10,000, which is option 'A'.

Anu Sen answered
Calculation of Purchases

Opening Stock = Rs. 6,000
Closing Stock = Rs. 8,000
Cost of Goods Sold = Rs. 87,000

To calculate the value of purchases, we can use the following formula:

Purchases = Cost of Goods Sold + Closing Stock - Opening Stock

Substituting the given values, we get:

Purchases = Rs. 87,000 + Rs. 8,000 - Rs. 6,000
Purchases = Rs. 89,000

Therefore, the value of purchases is Rs. 89,000.

Explanation

The concept of purchases is important in accounting, as it helps to determine the cost of goods sold during a particular period. In this question, we are given the opening stock, closing stock, and cost of goods sold, and we are required to calculate the value of purchases.

The formula for calculating purchases is based on the principle of accounting known as the cost of goods sold. This principle states that the cost of goods sold during a particular period should include the cost of the goods that were sold, as well as the cost of goods that were not sold but were used in the production process.

To apply this formula, we first need to understand the meaning of opening stock, closing stock, and cost of goods sold. Opening stock refers to the value of inventory that a company has at the beginning of a particular period. Closing stock refers to the value of inventory that a company has at the end of a particular period. Cost of goods sold refers to the cost of the goods that were sold during a particular period.

Using the formula for purchases, we can calculate the value of purchases by adding the cost of goods sold and the value of closing stock, and subtracting the value of opening stock. This gives us the total cost of goods that a company has purchased during a particular period.

In this question, we are given the values of opening stock, closing stock, and cost of goods sold, and we can simply substitute these values into the formula to calculate the value of purchases. The answer is Rs. 89,000.

X who was closing his books on 31.03.2006 failed to take the actual stock which he did on 9th April, when it was ascertained by him to be worth Rs 25,000.

Pragati Shah answered
Calculation of Weighted Average Cost

Opening Stock:
- Quantity: 50 units
- Value: Rs.2,200
- Unit cost: 2,200/50 = Rs.44

Purchase on 2.12.2005:
- Quantity: 100 units
- Value: Rs.4,740
- Unit cost: 4,740/100 = Rs.47.4

Issue on 4.12.2005:
- Quantity: 50 units
- Value: 50 x 44 (unit cost of opening stock) = Rs.2,200

Purchase on 5.12.2005:
- Quantity: 200 units
- Value: Rs.9,600
- Unit cost: 9,600/200 = Rs.48

Total Quantity and Value:
- Quantity: 50 (opening stock) + 100 (purchase on 2.12.2005) + 200 (purchase on 5.12.2005) - 50 (issue on 4.12.2005) = 300 units
- Value: 2,200 (opening stock) + 4,740 (purchase on 2.12.2005) + 9,600 (purchase on 5.12.2005) - 2,200 (issue on 4.12.2005) = Rs.14,340

Weighted Average Cost:
- Total cost: Rs.14,340
- Total quantity: 300 units
- Weighted average cost: 14,340/300 = Rs.47.33

Answer:

The value of inventory at the end of the week and the unit weighted average costs is Rs.14,200 and Rs.47.33 respectively.

Freedom Institute answered
  • To find the estimated cost of the missing inventory, we use the gross profit method.
  • The gross profit on sales is 25%, which means the cost of goods sold (COGS) is 75% of sales.
  • The total sales amount to Rs. 48,00,000, so the COGS is Rs. 36,00,000 (75% of Rs. 48,00,000).
  • The cost of goods available for sale is the sum of opening inventory and purchases, which is Rs. 40,00,000 (Rs. 6,00,000 + Rs. 34,00,000).
  • Therefore, the expected closing inventory should be Rs. 4,00,000 (Rs. 40,00,000 - Rs. 36,00,000).
  • The actual physical inventory counted is Rs. 3,25,000.
  • The difference between the expected and actual inventory is Rs. 75,000, which is the estimated cost of the missing inventory, confirming that option a is correct.

  • A:

    Money measurement

  • B:

    Conservatism

  • C:

    Cost

  • D:

    Periodicity

The answer is b.

Arka Kaur answered
Explanation:
The concept of conservatism in accounting requires that the assets and revenues should be not overstated and liabilities and expenses should not be understated. In this case, the businessman purchased goods for Rs. 25,00,000 and sold 70% of such goods during the accounting year ended 31st March, 2005. The market value of remaining goods was Rs. 5,00,000.

The businessman valued the Closing stock at Rs. 5,00,000 and not at Rs. 7,50,000. This is because of the concept of conservatism. The reasons are:

• Certainty - The market value of Rs. 5,00,000 is certain, whereas the market value of Rs. 7,50,000 is not certain.

• Objectivity - The market value of Rs. 5,00,000 is more objective, whereas the market value of Rs. 7,50,000 is more subjective.

• Prudence - The concept of conservatism requires prudence in valuing the closing stock. In this case, valuing the closing stock at Rs. 5,00,000 is more prudent and conservative than valuing it at Rs. 7,50,000.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B, i.e. conservatism.

Average Inventory = Rs. 12,000. Closing stock is Rs. 3,000 more than opening stock. The value of closing Inventory = _________.

    Rs. 24,000
  • c)
    Rs. 10,500
  • d)
    Rs. 13,500
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Sameer Basu answered
Given:
Average Inventory = Rs. 12,000
Closing stock is Rs. 3,000 more than opening stock

To find: The value of closing Inventory

Solution:

Let the opening stock be x.
Then, the closing stock will be x+3,000.

Average inventory = (Opening stock + Closing stock) / 2

12,000 = (x + (x+3,000)) / 2

24,000 = 2x + 3,000

2x = 21,000

x = 10,500

Therefore,
Opening stock = Rs. 10,500
Closing stock = Rs. 10,500 + Rs. 3,000 = Rs. 13,500

The value of closing inventory = Rs. 13,500

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

 Under Inflationary conditions, LIFO will lead to : 
  • a)

  • b)
    Higher Sale 
  • c)
    Lower profit 
  • d)
    Higher profit 
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Jayant Mishra answered
Under LIFO (last-in, first out), the latest/higher costs will flow quickly to the cost of goods sold, and the older/lower costs will remain in inventory. If a company can increase its selling prices by the amount of the cost increases, the gross profit (sales minus the cost of goods sold), net income, taxable income, income taxes, and inventory will remain nearly the same.

Calculation of value of stock on 30th June:

1. Adjust physical stock on 23rd June: Rs 4,80,000
2. Add purchases made: Rs 40,000
3. Subtract goods delivered on 5th July: Rs 16,000
4. Adjust for goods sent on consignment: Rs 24,000 (unsold)
5. Adjust for goods sent on approval: Rs 16,000 (returned) + Rs 16,000 (remaining)
6. Adjust for goods sold at cost plus 25%: Rs 1,36,000 + 25% = Rs 1,70,000
- Rs 24,000 (sold at loss)
= Rs 1,46,000
- Rs 32,000 (sent on approval and returned)
= Rs 1,14,000

Calculation:

1. Physical stock on 23rd June = Rs 4,80,000
2. Add purchases made = Rs 40,000
3. Subtract goods delivered on 5th July = Rs 16,000
Value of stock as on 30th June before other adjustments = Rs 5,04,000
4. Adjust for goods sent on consignment = Rs 24,000 (unsold)
Value of stock as on 30th June after adjustment for consignment goods = Rs 4,80,000
5. Adjust for goods sent on approval = Rs 16,000 (returned) + Rs 16,000 (remaining)
Value of stock as on 30th June after adjustment for approval goods = Rs 4,48,000
6. Adjust for goods sold at cost plus 25% = Rs 1,14,000
- Rs 24,000 (sold at loss)
= Rs 90,000
Value of stock as on 30th June after adjustment for sales = Rs 4,46,400

Therefore, the value of stock on 30th June is Rs 4,46,400.

Under inflationary conditions, which of the methods will not show lowest value of cost of goods sold?

Arka Kaur answered
Explanation:

Inflation refers to the general increase in the price level of goods and services in an economy over a period of time. Under inflationary conditions, the cost of goods sold (COGS) will increase, as the cost of raw materials, labor, and other expenses also increase.

There are different methods of inventory valuation, such as FIFO (first-in, first-out), LIFO (last-in, first-out), and weighted average. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of method can affect the calculation of COGS and the profitability of the business.

FIFO Method:

The FIFO method assumes that the first items purchased are the first items sold. Therefore, the COGS is calculated based on the cost of the oldest inventory, and the ending inventory is based on the cost of the most recent purchases. Inflationary conditions will lead to higher COGS and lower ending inventory value under FIFO.

LIFO Method:

The LIFO method assumes that the last items purchased are the first items sold. Therefore, the COGS is calculated based on the cost of the most recent purchases, and the ending inventory is based on the cost of the oldest inventory. Inflationary conditions will lead to lower COGS and higher ending inventory value under LIFO.

Weighted Average Method:

The weighted average method calculates the average cost of all the units in inventory, based on the total cost of goods available for sale and the total units available for sale. Inflationary conditions will lead to a higher average cost and higher COGS under weighted average.

Conclusion:

Under inflationary conditions, LIFO and weighted average methods will not show the lowest value of COGS, as they will result in lower COGS and higher ending inventory value or higher average cost and higher COGS, respectively. On the other hand, FIFO will result in higher COGS and lower ending inventory value under inflation. Therefore, the choice of inventory valuation method can have a significant impact on the financial statements of a business, especially under inflationary conditions.

Disha Joshi answered
Calculation of Closing Stock:

Step 1: Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Goods Sold = Sales / (1 - Margin % on Cost)
Cost of Goods Sold = 90,000 / (1 - 20%) = 1,12,500

Step 2: Calculation of Cost of Goods Available for Sale
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = Cost of Goods Sold + Closing Stock
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = 1,12,500 + Closing Stock

Step 3: Calculation of Closing Stock
Closing Stock = Cost of Goods Available for Sale - Cost of Goods Purchased
Closing Stock = (1,12,500 + Closing Stock) - 1,00,000
Closing Stock = 12,500 + Closing Stock
Closing Stock - Closing Stock = 12,500
Closing Stock = 12,500 / 1
Closing Stock = 12,500

Hence, the closing stock is Rs 25,000 (Option C).

Puja Singh answered
To calculate the amount of purchase, we need to use the formula:

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

Given information:
Cost of Goods Sold = Rs.80,700
Opening Stock = Rs.5,800
Closing Stock = Rs.6,000

Let's calculate the amount of purchase using the above formula:

Purchase = Rs.80,700 + Rs.6,000 - Rs.5,800
Purchase = Rs.80,700 + Rs.200
Purchase = Rs.80,900

Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D' - Rs.80,900.

Rajat Patel answered
International Accounting Standard 2 (IAS 2) defines inventories as the “assets: 

(a) held for sale in the ordinary course of business; 

(b) in the process of production for such sale; or 
(c) in the form of materials or supplies to be consumed in the production process or in the rendering of services.

Inventories are those assets of an entity which are sold in the normal course of business. These are the finished goods which are ready for being sold. Assets which are held for sale but are not traded in the normal course of business cannot be classified as inventories.

Apart from the finished goods that are ready for sale the goods in the process of production are also classified as inventories. The goods which have undergone some production process but are not in the intended selling condition are termed as work in progress or work in process. Work in progress is also part of the inventories.

The raw materials used for the production of goods are also classified as inventories. All the raw materials that are available in the store waiting for being used in the production of goods are included in inventories.

Right answer is lifo because under inflationary conditions the recently purchased goods will be of higher price and hence we require the closing stock at lowest value therefore if we follow lifo then the goods which are purchased recently at Higher prices will be sold and those goods which are purchase at the beginning at lower prices will be in our closing stock

Cost of Normal Sales Calculation

The cost of normal sales can be calculated using the following formula:

Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases - Closing Stock

Here, we are given the value of physical stock on 23rd June, which is Rs 4,80,000. We need to calculate the value of closing stock on 30th June, taking into account the following transactions:

1. Out of goods sent on consignment, goods costing Rs 24,000 were unsold.
2. Purchases of Rs 40,000 were made, out of which goods worth Rs 16,000 were delivered on 5th July.
3. Sales were Rs 1,36,000, which include goods worth Rs 32,000 sent on approval. Half of these goods were returned before 30th June, but no intimation is available regarding the remaining goods. Goods are sold at cost plus 25%. However, goods costing Rs 24,000 had been sold for Rs 12,000.

Let's calculate the cost of normal sales using the above formula:

Opening Stock = Rs 4,80,000
Purchases = Rs 40,000 - Rs 16,000 (goods delivered on 5th July) = Rs 24,000
Closing Stock = Opening Stock + Purchases - Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of Goods Sold = Rs 4,80,000 + Rs 24,000 - Cost of Normal Sales

Sales = Rs 1,36,000 - Rs 32,000 (goods sent on approval) = Rs 1,04,000
Cost of Normal Sales = (Cost of Goods Sold - Rs 24,000) / 1.25

We need to subtract the cost of goods sent on consignment but not sold (Rs 24,000) from the cost of goods sold, as these goods are still with us and have not been sold. We also need to divide the cost of normal sales by 1.25 to account for the fact that goods are sold at cost plus 25%.

Let's substitute the values in the above formula:

Cost of Normal Sales = (Rs 4,80,000 + Rs 24,000 - Cost of Goods Sold - Rs 24,000) / 1.25
Cost of Normal Sales = (Rs 4,80,000 + Rs 24,000 - Rs 1,04,000 - Rs 24,000) / 1.25
Cost of Normal Sales = Rs 73,600

Therefore, the cost of normal sales is Rs 73,600.

Tanvi Pillai answered
Periodic Inventory system

Periodic Inventory System is a method of inventory management where the inventory balance and cost of goods sold are determined at specific intervals of time, rather than continuously. The physical count of inventory is performed periodically, usually at the end of each accounting period.

Features of Periodic Inventory System:

1. Physical Count: Under the periodic inventory system, physical inventory counts are done periodically to determine the ending inventory balance.

2. Cost of Goods Sold: The cost of goods sold is calculated by subtracting the ending inventory balance from the cost of goods available for sale.

3. No Real-Time Inventory Information: Since inventory is only counted periodically, there is no real-time information available on inventory levels.

4. Lower Cost: Periodic inventory systems are generally less expensive to implement and maintain than perpetual inventory systems.

5. Suitable for Small Businesses: Small businesses with low inventory levels may find periodic inventory systems more suitable.

Advantages of Periodic Inventory System:

1. Lower Cost: The periodic inventory system is less expensive to implement and maintain than perpetual inventory systems.

2. Simplicity: The periodic inventory system is simple to use and is suitable for small businesses with low inventory levels.

3. Flexibility: The periodic inventory system is flexible and allows businesses to adjust the frequency of physical inventory counts to their needs.

Disadvantages of Periodic Inventory System:

1. No Real-Time Information: The periodic inventory system does not provide real-time information on inventory levels, which can lead to stockouts and overstocking.

2. Inaccurate Information: The periodic inventory system relies on physical inventory counts, which can be inaccurate due to human error or theft.

3. Time-Consuming: Physical inventory counts are time-consuming and can disrupt business operations.

Conclusion:

The periodic inventory system is a simple and flexible method of inventory management that is suitable for small businesses with low inventory levels. However, it does not provide real-time information on inventory levels and can be inaccurate due to physical inventory counts.

Before chosing any of the stock valuation methods you have to see that there is inflation , deflation or balace situation in the marekt for materials, labors etc.if there is inflation,FIFO method will give you the highest stock value and then Average method.if there is deflation,
LIFO method will give you the highest stock value and the average menthod.if there is balance situation which is uncommon.then all the method will give same stock.

Pranav Gupta answered
Valuing Damaged Inventory

Damaged inventory refers to goods or products that have been partially or fully damaged as a result of various reasons such as accidents, natural disasters, or theft. When it comes to valuing damaged inventory, there are various methods that can be used. However, the most appropriate method is to value the inventory at net realizable value (NRV).

Net Realizable Value (NRV)

Net realizable value (NRV) refers to the estimated selling price of inventory less the estimated costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This method is considered appropriate because the damaged inventory cannot be sold at the original cost and the cost of repairing the damaged goods is an additional expense. Thus, the NRV method ensures that the inventory is valued at a more realistic value based on its current condition and market demand.

Advantages of NRV

- Accurate valuation: The NRV method provides an accurate valuation of damaged inventory based on its current condition and market demand. This method takes into account the additional costs required to repair or dispose of the goods, thus providing a more realistic value.

- Consistency: The NRV method is consistent with the matching principle of accounting. This principle requires that expenses should be matched with the revenues they help to generate. The NRV method ensures that the costs associated with the damaged inventory are matched with the estimated revenue from the sale of the inventory.

- Compliance: The NRV method is compliant with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and international financial reporting standards (IFRS). These standards require that inventory be valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Conclusion

In conclusion, damaged inventory should be valued at net realizable value (NRV) because it provides an accurate and realistic valuation based on the current condition and market demand of the goods. This method is consistent with the matching principle of accounting and is compliant with GAAP and IFRS.

Given:
Value of Inventory as per physical inventory verification = Rs. 35,000
Goods costing Rs. 5,000 were sold during the week (April 01, 2011 to April 07, 2011)
Goods received from consignor amounting to Rs. 4,000 included in the value of Inventory
Goods earlier purchased but returned during the period amounted to Rs. 1,000
Goods earlier purchased and accounted but not received Rs. 6,000

To find: Value of Inventories held as on March 31, 2011

Solution:
Step 1: Calculate the value of Inventories as on April 07, 2011
Value of Inventory as per physical inventory verification = Rs. 35,000
Goods costing Rs. 5,000 were sold during the week
Therefore, Value of Inventories as on April 07, 2011 = Rs. 35,000 - Rs. 5,000 = Rs. 30,000

Step 2: Adjustments for goods received and returned
Goods received from consignor amounting to Rs. 4,000 included in the value of Inventory
Therefore, Value of Inventories as on April 07, 2011 (adjusted for goods received) = Rs. 30,000 - Rs. 4,000 = Rs. 26,000
Goods earlier purchased but returned during the period amounted to Rs. 1,000
Therefore, Value of Inventories as on April 07, 2011 (adjusted for goods received and returned) = Rs. 26,000 + Rs. 1,000 = Rs. 27,000

Step 3: Adjustments for goods purchased but not received
Goods earlier purchased and accounted but not received Rs. 6,000
Therefore, Value of Inventories as on April 07, 2011 (adjusted for goods received, returned and not received) = Rs. 27,000 - Rs. 6,000 = Rs. 21,000

Step 4: Value of Inventories as on March 31, 2011
The value of Inventories as on March 31, 2011 would be the same as the value of Inventories as on April 07, 2011 (adjusted for all the adjustments made above)
Therefore, Value of Inventories as on March 31, 2011 = Rs. 21,000

Akshay Saini answered
Consequences of Undervaluation of Closing Stock:

Undervaluation of closing stock can have several consequences, including:

1. Underreporting of Profit: If the closing stock is undervalued, it will lead to the understatement of the cost of goods sold and overstatement of the gross profit. This will result in an underreporting of profit for the period.

2. Creation of Hidden Reserves: Undervaluation of closing stock can lead to the creation of hidden reserves. This is because the difference between the actual value of closing stock and the undervalued amount will be added to the next year's opening stock. This will result in an artificially inflated opening stock value, which will create a hidden reserve.

3. Reduction of Tax Liability: Undervaluation of closing stock can reduce the tax liability of the business. This is because the cost of goods sold will be lower, resulting in a lower taxable profit. However, this is not a desirable practice as it can lead to penalties and fines for tax evasion.

4. All of the Above: Undervaluation of closing stock can have all of the above consequences, i.e., underreporting of profit, creation of hidden reserves, and reduction of tax liability.

In conclusion, it is important for businesses to value their closing stock accurately to avoid these consequences and ensure compliance with accounting and tax regulations. Any errors or misstatements should be corrected promptly to avoid any legal or financial implications.

Given information:
- Value of stock as per physical stock verification on April 07, 2005 = Rs.35,000
- Goods costing Rs.5,000 were sold during the week of April 01 to April 07, 2005.
- Goods received from consignor worth Rs.4,000 were included in the value of stock.
- Goods worth Rs.1,000 were returned during the period.
- Goods worth Rs.6,000 were accounted for but not received.

To determine the value of stock held as on March 31, 2005, we need to adjust the stock value as per the above details. Let's break down the adjustments:

1. Adjust for goods sold during the week:
- Deduct the cost of goods sold from the stock value as on April 07, 2005.
- Cost of goods sold = Rs.5,000
- Adjusted stock value = Rs.30,000 (35,000 - 5,000)

2. Adjust for goods received from consignor:
- Exclude the value of goods received from the consignor, as they were not owned by the company as on March 31, 2005.
- Adjusted stock value = Rs.30,000 - Rs.4,000 = Rs.26,000

3. Adjust for goods returned during the period:
- Include the value of goods returned during the period, as they were owned by the company as on March 31, 2005.
- Adjusted stock value = Rs.26,000 + Rs.1,000 = Rs.27,000

4. Adjust for goods accounted but not received:
- Exclude the value of goods accounted for but not received, as they were not owned by the company as on March 31, 2005.
- Adjusted stock value = Rs.27,000 - Rs.6,000 = Rs.21,000

Therefore, the value of stock held as on March 31, 2005 was Rs.21,000.

However, the correct answer given is option 'C' - Rs.43,000. This seems to be an error in the question or answer options provided.

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Lakshmi Kaur answered
Given: Average Stock = Rs 12,000, Closing stock is Rs 3,000 more than opening stock.

To find: Value of closing stock.

Solution:

Let the opening stock be x.

Then, the closing stock will be x + 3,000 (as given in the question)

Total stock = opening stock + closing stock/2

12,000 = (x + x + 3,000)/2

24,000 = 2x + 3,000

2x = 24,000 - 3,000

2x = 21,000

x = 10,500

Therefore, the opening stock is Rs 10,500.

The closing stock is Rs 3,000 more than the opening stock.

Therefore, the closing stock is Rs 13,500.

Hence, the value of closing stock is Rs 13,500.
