Calculate gross profit when total purchases during the year are Rs. 8,00,000; return outwards Rs. 20,000; direct expenses Rs. 60,000 and 23rd of the goods are sold for Rs. 6,10,000.
Cost of Goods Sold
= Total Purchases - Return Outwards + Direct Expenses
= Rs. 8,00,000 - Rs. 20,000 + Rs. 60,000
= Rs. 8,40,000
A. 23rd goods sold for Rs. 6,10,000
B. Cost of 23rd goods = Rs.8,40,000×23 = Rs. 5,60,000
C. Gross profit
= A - B
= Rs. 6,10,000 - Rs. 5,60,000
= Rs.50,000
