Rs. 765
Rs. 805
Rs. 786
Rs. 700
✅ The correct answer is B.
Calculation of Closing Stock:
1st January, 20XX: Opening balance: 50 units @ Rs 4 = 50 × 4 = Rs. 200
Issue: 2nd January, 20XX: 30 units = 30 × 4 = Rs. 120
Remaining Stock = (50 – 30) × 4 = Rs. 80
Reciept: 5th January, 20XX: 100 units @ Rs 5 = 100 × 5 = Rs. 500
Reciept: 12th January, 20XX: 200 units @ Rs 4.50 = 200 × 4.5 = Rs. 900
Remaining Stock = Rs. 80 + Rs. 500 + Rs. 900 = Rs. 1480
Issue: 18th January, 20XX: 150 units = (150 × 4.5) = Rs. 675
Remaining Stock = (50 × 4.5) + (100 × 5) + (20 × 4) = Rs. 805.
