Calculate the Current assets at the end of the year.
| Current Assets | = | Quick Assets + Closing inventory |
| Current Liabilities | = | ₹ 60,000 |
| Quick ratio | = | 1 : 1 |
| Quick Assets | = | ₹ 60,000 |
| Inventory turnover ratio | = | 5 times |
| Sales | = | ₹ 3,00,000 |
| Rate of gross profit on sale | = | 20% |
| Cost of goods sold | = | ₹ 2,40,000 |
| Inventory turnover ratio | = | Cost of goods sold |
| Average Inventory |
| 5 times | = | Cost of goods sold |
| Average Inventory |
| Let assume that opening inventory | = | x |
| = | X + ₹ 4,000 |
| 5 times | = | ₹ 2,40,000 |
| x + (x + ₹ 4,000) | ||
| 2 |
| 5 times | = | ₹ 2,40,000 |
| 2x + ₹ 4,000) | ||
| 2 |
| Inventory turnover ratio | = | ₹ 2,40,000 |
| x + ₹ 2,000) |
| 5 (x + ₹ 2,000) | = | ₹ 2,40,000 |
| 5x + ₹10,000 | = | ₹ 2,40,000 |
| 5x + ₹10,000 | = | ₹ 2,40,000 - ₹ 10,000 |
| 5x | = | ₹ 2,30,000 |
| X | = | ₹ 2,30,000 |
| 5 |
| x | = | ₹ 46,000 |
| Opening Inventory | = | ₹ 46,000 |
| Closing Inventory | = | ₹ 46,000 + ₹ 4,000 |
| Closing Inventory | = | ₹ 50,000 |
| New Current Assets | = | Quick Assets + Closing Inventory |
| = | ₹ 60,000 + ₹ 50,000 | |
| = | ₹ 1,10,000 |
