Best answer

Answer: Gross Profit ₹ 60,000; Net Profit ₹ 13,000 (Jayesh ₹ 7,800, Rupesh ₹ 5,200); Balance Sheet total ₹ 2,74,000.

Working notes

  • Rent ₹ 20,000 is for 10 months, i.e. ₹ 2,000 per month. Outstanding rent for 2 months = ₹ 4,000; rent for the year = ₹ 24,000.
  • Depreciation on furniture: old furniture ₹ 20,000 × 10% = ₹ 2,000 for the full year; addition ₹ 20,000 × 10% × 6/12 = ₹ 1,000 (1-10-2022 to 31-3-2023). Total ₹ 3,000.
  • Interest on capital at 5%: Jayesh ₹ 1,20,000 × 5% = ₹ 6,000; Rupesh ₹ 80,000 × 5% = ₹ 4,000.
  • Free samples ₹ 2,000 are deducted from purchases in the Trading Account and debited to the Profit and Loss Account as an advertisement expense.
