Writing off of a Particular Item:

Calculation of Gross Profit:
The gross profit earned during the year was 25% on cost. Hence, the calculation of gross profit can be done as follows:
- Opening Stock = 700000
- Add: Purchases = 3460000
- Add: Manufacturing Expenses = 700000
- Less: Closing Stock = ?
- Cost of Goods Sold = (Opening Stock + Purchases + Manufacturing Expenses) - Closing Stock
- Cost of Goods Sold = (700000 + 3460000 + 700000) - Closing Stock
- Cost of Goods Sold = 4860000 - Closing Stock
- Gross Profit = 25% of Cost of Goods Sold
- Gross Profit = 0.25 x (4860000 - Closing Stock)
- Gross Profit = 1215000 - 0.25 x Closing Stock
Now, let us calculate the value of Closing Stock.
- Cost of Closing Stock = (Original Cost - Written off Amount)
- Cost of Closing Stock = (160000 - 60000)
- Cost of Closing Stock = 100000
Hence, the value of Closing Stock is 100000.
Substituting the value of Closing Stock in the formula for Gross Profit, we get:
- Gross Profit = 1215000 - 0.25 x 100000
- Gross Profit = 1215000 - 25000
- Gross Profit = 1190000
Hence, the gross profit earned during the year is 1190000.

- The value of stock as on 31.3.2017 cannot be calculated as it is not given in the question.
- The value of stock on 1.4.2016 is 700000.
- The purchase during the period from 1.4.2016 to 31.3.2016 is 3460000.
