Calculate the Proprietary Ratio, if the Total Assets to Debt Ratio is 2:1. Debt is ₹5,00,000. Equity Share Capital is 0.5 times of Debt. Preference Share Capital is 25% of Equity Share Capital. Net Profit before Tax is ₹10,00,000, and the rate of tax is 40%.
(CBSE Sample Paper 2020)
Total Assets = Debt × 2 = 5,00,000 × 2 = ₹10,00,000
Equity Share Capital = 0.5 × Debt = 0.5 × 5,00,000 = ₹2,50,000
Preference Share Capital = 25% of Equity Share Capital = 0.25 × 2,50,000 = ₹62,500
Total Share Capital = 2,50,000 + 62,500 = ₹3,12,500
Tax = 40% of 10,00,000 = ₹4,00,000
Net Profit after Tax (Surplus) = 10,00,000 − 4,00,000 = ₹6,00,000
Shareholders’ Funds = Total Share Capital + Surplus = 3,12,500 + 6,00,000 = ₹9,12,500
Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders’ Funds ÷ Total Assets = 9,12,500 ÷ 10,00,000 = 0.9125:1, or 91.25%
