Match List-I with List-II.
| LIST I | LIST II |
| (A) Shareholders fund | (I) Non-current investments |
| (B) Current Liabilities | (II) Reserves and Surplus |
| (C) Current Asset | (III) Trade payables |
| (D) Fixed Asset | (IV) Inventories |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
(A) Shareholders’ fund — this matches (II) Reserves and Surplus. Shareholders’ funds are share capital plus reserves and surplus.
(B) Current Liabilities — this matches (III) Trade Payables. Creditors and bills payable are due within the operating cycle.
(C) Current Asset — this matches (IV) Inventories. Stock is held for sale in the normal course of business.
(D) Fixed Asset — this takes (I) Non-current investments, the only item left. Investments held for the long term are shown under non-current assets.
Note: It seems that there is a mistake in the original NTA paper, which prints “Fixed Asset” in (D) when it should read “Non-current Asset”: in Schedule III, fixed assets and non-current investments are two separate items under the head Non-current Assets. The question can still be solved, because (A), (B) and (C) take (II), (III) and (IV), which leaves only (I) for (D), and only Option (4) does that.
