(a) COGS = 90,000 + 10,000 = ₹1,00,000; GP = 2,50,000 − 1,00,000 = ₹1,50,000 → GP ratio 60%; NP ₹75,000 → NP ratio 30%. (b) Five uses of computerised accounting — records, financial statements, inventory, payroll, reports.

(a) Profitability ratios of Mukesh Ltd.

Both ratios are computed on Revenue from operations = ₹2,50,000 (other income of ₹20,000 is not part of operating revenue).

Step 1 — Cost of goods sold (COGS) = Purchase of stock in trade + Changes in inventories

=90,000+10,000=₹1,00,000= 90,000 + 10,000 = ₹1,00,000

Step 2 — Gross profit = Revenue from operations − COGS

=2,50,000−1,00,000=₹1,50,000= 2,50,000 - 1,00,000 = ₹1,50,000

  1. Gross Profit Ratio =Gross profitRevenue from operations×100=1,50,0002,50,000×100=60%= \frac{\text{Gross profit}}{\text{Revenue from operations}} \times 100 = \frac{1,50,000}{2,50,000} \times 100 = 60\%
  2. Net Profit Ratio (net profit = Profit for the year ₹75,000) =Net profitRevenue from operations×100=75,0002,50,000×100=30%= \frac{\text{Net profit}}{\text{Revenue from operations}} \times 100 = \frac{75,000}{2,50,000} \times 100 = 30\%
