Net loss Rs. 20,000 Depreciation on Machinery Rs. 50,000 Amortisation of goodwill Rs. 5,000 Loss on the sale of old furniture Rs. 3,500 Profit on the sale of land Rs. 8,500 Funds from operation are

Rs. 25,000
Rs. 30,000
Rs. 32,000
Rs. 36,500

The correct answer is: C. Rs. 32,000

Funds from operations (FFO) is a measure of a company’s cash flow from its operating activities. It is calculated by adding net income to depreciation and amortization, and then subtracting any gains or losses from the sale of assets.

In this case, net income is -Rs. 20,000, depreciation on machinery is Rs. 50,000, amortization of goodwill is Rs. 5,000, loss on the sale of old furniture is Rs. 3,500, and profit on the sale of land is Rs. 8,500. Therefore, funds from operations are calculated as follows:

FFO = -Rs. 20,000 + Rs. 50,000 + Rs. 5,000 – Rs. 3,500 + Rs. 8,500 = Rs. 32,000

The other options are incorrect because they do not take into account all of the relevant information. Option A, Rs. 25,000, does not include the depreciation on machinery. Option B, Rs. 30,000, does not include the amortization of goodwill. Option D, Rs. 36,500, includes the gain on the sale of land, which is not a cash flow from operations.
