(A) Rs. 2,00,000
(B) Rs. 5,00,000
(C) Rs. 7,50,000
(D) Rs. 2,50,000
Solution :
CR = Current Ratio
CA = Current Assets
CL = Current Liability
NWC = Net Working Capital
-----> CR = CA / CL
2.5 = CA / CL
CA = 2.5 CL
NWC = CA - CL
3,00,000 = 2.5 CL - CL
1.5CL = 3,00,000
CL = 3,00,000/1.5
= 2,00,000
CA = 2.5CL
= 2.5 (2,00,000)
= 5,00,000
Answer : 5,00,000

(A) 40,000
(B) 60,000
(C) 1,60,000
(D) 4,000
Solution:
CR = Current Ratio
CA = Current Assets
CL = Current Liabilities
QR = Quick Ratio
CR = CA/CL
2 = CA/80,000
CA = 80,000 x 2
= 1,60,000
QR = CA - Stock / CL
1.5 = 1,60,000 - Stock / 80,000
80,000 x 1.5 = 1,60,000 - Stock
1,20,000 = 1,60,000 - Stock
Stock = 1,60,000 - 1,20,000
= 40,000
