What is the amount of subscription in arrears at the end of the year 2021?

Options:

₹60,000

₹62,000

₹64,000

₹66,000

Correct Answer:

₹66,000

Explanation:

Total subscription received = ₹620000 which include 90% of this current year and 80000 (30000+50000) for the last or future year.
So current year subscription is 620000 - 80000= 540000 which is 90%.
So, 100% is 540000 X 90/100 = ₹600000.
So subscription in arrears for the current year is 600000 - 540000 = ₹60000
Subscription in arrears for the previous year is ₹45000 out of which 20% is written off means 9000. So o/s subscription for the year ending 31 March 2020 is 45000 -9000 = 36000
Out of 36000, ₹30000 is received in this year, so 36000-30000= 6000 is O/S for the previous year ending 31 March 2020.
Thus, amount of subscription in arrears at the end of the year 2021 = 60000 + 6000 = ₹66000
