[amp_mcq option1=”Purchases + opening stock – cost of goods sold = closing stock” option2=”Opening stock + purchases – closing stock = cost of goods sold” option3=”Closing stock – cost of goods sold – purchases = Opening stock” option4=”Cost of goods sold + closing stock – purchases = Opening stock” correct=”option3″]
The correct answer is C. Closing stock – cost of goods sold – purchases = Opening stock.
The equation for cost of goods sold is:
Cost of goods sold = Opening stock + Purchases – Closing stock
Therefore, the equation for opening stock is:
Opening stock = Cost of goods sold + Purchases – Closing stock
The equation for closing stock is:
Closing stock = Cost of goods sold + Purchases – Opening stock
Therefore, the equation C. Closing stock – cost of goods sold – purchases = Opening stock is not correct.
