What will be the net profit before interest and tax?

Options:

₹7,20,000

₹7,00,000

₹6,20,000

₹6,00,000

Correct Answer:

₹7,20,000

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1- ₹7,20,000.

Net Profit Ratio = Net profit/Revenue from Operations × 100
12 = (Net profit/ 25,00,000)X 100
Net profit = (25,00,000 x 12)/100
               = ₹3,00,000

Tax rate is 50% means profit before tax = 3,00,000 + 3,00,000
                                                               = ₹6,00,000

10% Long-term Borrowings = ₹12,00,000
Interest = 12,00,000 X 10/100
             = ₹1,20,000

So, net profit before interest and tax = 6,00,000 + 1,20,000
                                                           = ₹7,20,000
