Correct Answer: Rs 1,60,000


Solution : Answer = Rs 1,60,000

Op. inventory + Purchases + D.Exp + Gross profit = Net sale + closing stock
⇒ Op. inventory + 3,00,000 + Nil + 1,00,000 = 5,00,000 + 60,000
⇒ Op. inventory = 5,60,000 - 4,00,000 = 1,60,000

COGS + G.P = Net sales
⇒ $x+\frac{x}{4}$= 5,00,000

⇒ $\frac{5x}{4}$= 5,00,000

⇒ $x$ = 4,00,000.
Cost of revenue from operation= 4,00,000.
G.P = 1,00,000.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
