The correct answer is: B. Rs. 14,100<\/p>\n

The formula for calculating the debtors’ opening balance is:<\/p>\n

Debtors’ opening balance = Debtors’ closing balance + Sales made to customers – Cash received from customers<\/p>\n

In this case, the debtors’ opening balance is:<\/p>\n

Debtors’ opening balance = Rs. 12,000 + Rs. 21,500 – Rs. 23,600 = Rs. 14,100<\/p>\n

Option A is incorrect because it is the total sales made to customers during the year.<\/p>\n

Option C is incorrect because it is the cash received from customers during the year.<\/p>\n

Option D is incorrect because it is the difference between the debtors’ closing balance and the sales made to customers during the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
