Answer 1

Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Closing Stock

= 40,000 + 3,20,000 − 1,20,000 = 2,40,00

(a) Sale of goods for Rs 40,000 (Cost Rs 32,000)- Increase

Reason: This transaction will decrease stock at the end (closing stock). Decrease in closing stock will result increase the proportion of Cost of Goods Sold and decrease in Average Stock

(b) Increase in value of Closing Stock by 40,000- Decrease

Reason: Increase in Closing Stock results decrease in Cost of Goods Sold and increase in Average Stock.

(c) Goods purchased for Rs 80,000- Decrease
