Solution

Cost of Goods Sold = Net Sales – Gross Profit
Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases – Closing Stock
Cost of Goods Sold = 40,000 + 1,10,000 – 30,000 = ₹ 1,20,000
Gross Profit = 25% of Sales or 33.33% of COGS
Gross Profit = ₹ 40,000
Net Sales = Cost of Goods Sold + Gross Profit
Net Sales = 1,20,000 + 40,000 = ₹ 1,60,000
