Correct Answer: Total Assets


Solution : Answer = Total Assets

Each item is expressed as a proportion of total assets or total liabilities and shareholders' equity in a common-size balance sheet. As a result, comparing various businesses or historical periods is much simpler.
For instance, inventory might be stated as 10% of total assets if a company had Rs.1,00,000 in inventory and Rs.10,00,000 in total assets.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
