Explanation:

sales are Rs. 100,000

G.P on cost of goods sold is 25%,

sales = cost of goods sold + G.P

Assume,

cost be 100

then gross profit on cost is

100× 25/100 = 25

sale = cost + Gross profit

= 100 + 25 =125

so,

percenrage of gross profit on sale is 25/125×100=20%

G.P = 1,00,000 × 20/100

= 20,000

G.P = Rs 20,000

cost of goods sold = Net sales - G.P

= 100,000 - 20,000

= 80,000

cost of goods sold = Rs 80,000

Hence, cost of goods sold = Rs 80,000

Answer:

Cost of Goods Sold will be Rs. 80,000

Explanation:

Solution :

Net Sales = Rs. 1,00,000

Gross Profit = 25 % on Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of Goods Sold = ??

Net Sales = Cost of Goods Sold + Gross Profit

Let,

Cost of Goods Sold = x

Net Sales = Cost of Goods Sold + Gross Profit

⇒ 1,00,000 = x + 25 % of x

⇒ 1,00,000 = x + 25x/100

⇒ 1,00,000 = x + 0.25x

⇒ 1,00,000 = 1.25x

⇒ 1.25x = 1,00,000

⇒ x = 1,00,000 / 1.25

x = 80,000

Cost of Goods Sold = Rs. 80,000

Gross Profit = 25 % on Cost of Goods Sold

⇒ 80,000 × (25/100)

20,000

Gross Profit = Rs. 20,000

Therefore, the Cost of Goods Sold will be Rs. 80,000
