Purchases | ₹ 3,00,000 |
Sales | ₹ 4,00,000 |
Purchase return | ₹ 2,000 |
Sales return | ₹ 3,000 |
Wages | ₹ 50,000 |

Salaries | ₹ 25,000 |
Stock on 01.01.2017 | ₹ 60,000 |
Stock on 31.12.2017 | ₹ 80,000 |
Answer:
Cost of good sold = opening stock + Net purchase + Direct exp – closing stock
Net purchase = 3,00,000 – 2,000 (return) = 2,98,000
Direct expenses = 50,000 (wages + 10,000 (carriage inward)) = 60,000
Cost of goods sold = 60,000 + 2,98,000 + 60,000 – 80,000 = 3,38,000
Gross profit = Net sales – cost of good sold
Net sales = 4,00,000 – 3,000 ( return) = 3,97,000
Gross profit = 3,97,000 – 3,38,000 = 59.000
OR
