Correct Answer: Rs.11,400


Solution : Total balance of Liability side of Balance sheet = Total Capital + Total creditor i.e. 48000+50000 = 98000

Balance of Cash Rs.3000

Hence the Balnce figure of Rs. 95000 (98000-3000) Represent Assets.

Asset is sold less by 12%of its value, So cash Realised from asset is Rs.83600 (95000-12%)

Hence loss on Realosation will be Rs.98000-3000-83600= 11400

Hence the correct answer is option 3.
