Option 1: Rs 23,800
Option 2: Rs 50,000
Option 3: Rs 43,000
Option 4: None of the above
Correct Answer: Rs 23,800
Solution :
Answer = Rs 23,800
60,000/4 = super profit
Super profit = 15,000
Capital employed = total assets – outsider liabilities
1,20,000 - 10,000 = 1,10,000
Normal profit = 1,10,000 X 8/100 = 8,800
Super profit = average profit – normal profit
15,000= average profit - 8,800
Average profit = 23,800 Hence, the correct option is 1.
