Options:

20%

10%

30%

Correct Answer:

10%

Explanation:

To calculate the return on investment (ROI) for the firm, we need to determine the net profit and divide it by the initial investment.

Net profit is calculated by subtracting expenses from gross profit: Net Profit = Gross Profit - Expenses Net Profit = ₹4,00,000 - ₹2,00,000 Net Profit = ₹2,00,000

Return on Investment (ROI) is calculated by dividing the net profit by the initial investment and multiplying by 100 to get a percentage: ROI = (Net Profit / Initial Investment) * 100 ROI = (₹2,00,000 / ₹20,00,000) * 100 ROI = (0.1) * 100 ROI = 10%

Therefore, the return on investment (ROI) for the firm is 10%.
