Solution



(i) Collection from Trade Receivables Rs 40,000- Increase

Reason: Collection from Trade Receivables will result in decrease in the amount of closing Trade Receivables which will reduce the amount of average Trade Receivables.

Closing Trade Receivables = 2,00,000 − 40,000 = Rs 1,60,000


(ii) Credit Revenue from Operations, i.e. Sales Rs 80,000- Decrease

Reason: This transaction will result in increase in both credit sales as well as closing Trade Receivables. Increase in closing Trade Receivables, in turn, will lead to an increase in the average Trade Receivables.

Credit Sales = 8,00,000 + 80,000 = Rs 8,80,000

Closing Trade Receivables = 2,00,000 + 80,000 = Rs 2,80,000


(iii) Sales Return Rs 20,000- Increase

Reason: This transaction will result in decrease in both sales and average Trade Receivables.

Credit Sales = 8,00,000 − 20,000= Rs 7,80,000

Closing Trade Receivables = 2,00,000 − 20,000 = Rs 1,80,000


(iv) Credit Purchase Rs 1,60,000- No Change

Reason: Credit Purchase does not affect the Debtors Turnover Ratio.
