 Total debts  900000
 Preference share capital  100000
 Shareholders funds  200000
 Current liabilities  400000
 Purchases  90000
 Excess of opening inventory over closing inventory  10000
 Aggregate of opening and closing inventory  50000

What will be the cost of revenue from operations?

Options:

₹110000

₹100000

₹90000

₹120000

Correct Answer:

₹100000

Explanation:

Cost of Revenue from Operations = Inventory in the beginning + Net Purchases – Inventory at the end
                                                =30000 + 90000 - 20000
                                                = ₹100000

Aggregate of opening and closing inventory ₹50000
Excess of opening inventory over closing inventory ₹10000
Let us assume opening inventory is x
So, closing inventory will 50000 - x
x- (50000-x) = 10000
x-50000 + x = 10000
2x= 60000
x= 30000
Closing inventory= 50000- 30000 = ₹20000
Opening inventory = 50000 - 20000 = ₹30000
