Explanation

XYZ Ventures

(a) Computation of cost of goods sold

Opening stock                                        200,000

Purchases                                              900.000

Cost of goods available for sales   =   1,100,000

Less closing stack                            (100.000) 

 Cost of goods sold                         1.000,000


(b) Computation of gross profits

Gross profit = 30% of cost of goods sold  

                    = 30% * Le 1,000,000

                    = Le 300,000

 

(c) Total sales Sales = Cost of goods sold +Gross profits

                                   = Le 1,000,000 + Le 300,000 

                                   = Le 1,300,000

 

(d) Net profit:

                                           Le                              Le

Gross profits                                                  300,000

Loss expenses

Salaries and wages        12,000

Shop rent                       150,000                  (270,000)

                                               

net profit                                                     (30,000)

 

 

(e) Rate turnover

= \(\frac{COST OF GOODS SOLD}{AVERAGE STOCK}\)

 

Average stock 

= \(\frac{opening stock + closing   stock}{2}\)

= \(\frac{Le200,000+100,000}{2}\)

=Le 150,000

Rate of turnover 

=  \(\frac{Le 1,000,00}{Le 150,000}\)

= 6.67 times
