Ques 20: Calculate the value of Closing Stock from the following particulars:
Ans:
Rate of Gross Profit (on cost) = 25%
Rate of Gross Profit (on sales) = 20%
Gross Profit = 20% of 1,20,000 = 24,000
Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of Goods Sold
24,000 = 1,20,000 – Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Goods Sold = 1,20,000 – 24,000 = Rs 96,000
Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses – Closing Stock
96,000 = 16,000 + 93,000 + 20,000 – Closing Stock
Closing Stock = 16,000 + 93,000 + 20,000 – 96,000 = Rs 33,000
Ques 21: Calculate the value of Opening Stock from the following:
Answer 21:
Rate of Gross Profit (on sales) = 40%
Gross Profit = 40% of (2,05,000 – 5,000) = 80,000
Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of Goods Sold
80,000 = 2,00,000 – Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Goods Sold = 2,00,000 – 80,000 = ₹ 1,20,000
Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses – Closing Stock
1,20,000 = Opening Stock + (1,24,000 – 4,000) + 8,000 – 36,000
Opening Stock = 1,20,000 – 1,20,000 – 8,000 + 36,000 = ₹ 28,000

Rate of Gross Profit (on cost) = 25%
Rate of Gross Profit (on sales) = 20%
Gross Profit = 20% of (30,000 + 1,04,000) = 26,800
Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of Goods Sold
26,800 = 1,34,000 – Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Goods Sold = 1,34,000 – 26,800 = ₹ 1,07,200
Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses – Closing Stock
1,07,200 = Opening Stock + 66,000 + (15,000 + 200) – 20,000
Opening Stock = 1,07,200 – 66,000 – 15,200 + 20,000 = ₹ 46,000
