What will be the proprietary ratio if the following information of the company is available?

Options:

53.33%

43.33%

63.33%

73.33%

Correct Answer:

53.33%

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1-53.33%.

* Total assets = Goodwill + other non current assets + current assets
                       = 5,00,000 + 22,00,000 + 18,00,000
                       = ₹45,00,000

*Shareholder's funds = Equity share capital +  general reserve - profit and loss balance(negative balance)
                                   = 15,00,000 +10,00,000 - 1,00,000   
                                   = ₹24,00,000

 

Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders’, Funds/total assets x 100
                         
    = 24,00,000/ 45,00,000 x 100
                             = 53.33%
