Question
Find out the amount of sales from the following information:
| Particulars | ₹ | Particulars | ₹ |
| Opening stock | 30,000 | Closing stock | 20,000 |
| Purchases less returns | 2,00,000 | Gross profit margin (on sales) | 30% |
Solution
Cost of goods sold = Opening stock + Net purchases – Closing stock
= 30,000 + 2,00,000 – 20,000
= ₹ 2,10,000
| Let the sales be | 100 |
| Less: Gross profit (30% on sales i.e,100) | 30 |
| Cost of goods sold | 70 |
Therefore percentage of gross profit on cost of goods sold is `30/70 xx 100` = 42.86%
Gross profit = 42.86% on ₹ 2,10,000
i.e. = `(42.86)/100 xx 2,10,000`
= 90,000
Sales = Cost of goods sold + Gross profit
= 2,10,000 + 90,000
Sales = ₹ 3,00,000
