• D. 20
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C 25

Stock at the beginning of
June = 75 units
July = 75 - (350 - 300) = 75 - 50 = 25 units
August = 25 - (275 - 250) = 25 - 25 = 0 unit
September = 200 - 175 = 25 units
October = 25 - (325 - 300) = 50 units
November = 25 + (325 - 300) = 50 units
From the above calculation, we get the following table
$\begin{array}{cccc}Months& Quantity& Quantitysold& Stockof\\ & Produced& sold& thebeginning\\ June& 300& 350& 75\\ July& 250& 275& 25\\ August& 200& 175& 0\\ September& 200& 200& 25\\ October& 325& 300& 25\end{array}$
The stock at the beginning of September was 25 units
