Correct Answer: 85%


Solution : The shareholder's equity is divided by the total assets of the company to arrive at the proprietary ratio, which is expressed as a percentage.

Hence the ratio is - 

= (Equity share capital + Preference share capital + Reserve Fund - Preliminary Exp.)/(Fixed assets + Current assets)

= Rs.(244000 + 170000 + 58000 - 30000)/Rs.(330000+190000)

= Rs.442000/Rs.520000

= 85%

Hence the correct answer is option 2.
