What is the amount of purchases, when: Opening stock is = Rs. 10,000 Closing stock is = Rs. 8,000 Sales is = Rs. 1,10,000 Cost of goods sold is = Rs. 80,000

Rs. 78,000
Rs. 30,000
Rs. 82,000
Rs. 92,000

The correct answer is A. Rs. 78,000.

The formula for calculating purchases is:

Purchases = Cost of goods sold + Opening stock – Closing stock

In this case, we have the following information:

  • Cost of goods sold = Rs. 80,000
  • Opening stock = Rs. 10,000
  • Closing stock = Rs. 8,000

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

Purchases = Rs. 80,000 + Rs. 10,000 – Rs. 8,000 = Rs. 78,000

Option B is incorrect because it is the value of the closing stock. Option C is incorrect because it is the value of the opening stock plus the cost of goods sold. Option D is incorrect because it is the value of the cost of goods sold plus the closing stock.
