Explanation

[i] Cost of goods sold = Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock
= 37,500 + 30,000 + 15,000
= 52,500

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold
= 70,000 - 52,500
= 17500

Net profit = Gross profit - Expenses
= 17,500 - ( 2500 + 3500 + 2600)
= 17,500 - 8,600
= ₦8,900

 

[ii] Working capital = Total assets - Total liabilites
= ( 15000 + 100000 + 25000) - ( 50000 + 60000)
= 140000 - 110000
= ₦30,000

 

[iii] Stock Turnover= cost of goods sold ÷ average stock


Note: average stock=opening stock + closing stock ÷ 2

37500 +15000 ÷ 2

= 52000

 

;52000÷26250

= 2times.
