Solution
Capital as on March 31, 2018 = Total Assets − External Liabilities
= 2,00,000 − 6,000 = Rs 1,94,000
Capital on April 01, 2017 = Capital on March 31,2018 − Additional Capital + Drawings − Profit
= 1,94,000 − 20,000 + 12,000 − 20,000 = Rs 1,66,000
Capital as on March 31, 2018 = Total Assets − External Liabilities
= 2,00,000 − 6,000 = Rs 1,94,000
Capital on April 01, 2017 = Capital on March 31,2018 − Additional Capital + Drawings − Profit
= 1,94,000 − 20,000 + 12,000 − 20,000 = Rs 1,66,000
