Answer Details

To calculate the net profit, we need to determine the Gross Profit first and then subtract the expenses from it. Follow these steps:

• Opening Stock: #2200
• Add Purchases: #18000
• Less Closing Stock: #1000

COGS = 2200 + 18000 - 1000 = #19,200

• Sales: #27000
• Less COGS: #19200

Gross Profit = 27000 - 19200 = #7,800

• Salaries: #1500
• Rejection in doubtful debts: #500
• Office expenses: #1100
• Other expenses: #1300

Total Expenses = 1500 + 500 + 1100 + 1300 = #4,400

• Net Profit = Gross Profit - Total Expenses
• Net Profit = 7800 - 4400

Net Profit = #3,400

Therefore, the net profit is #3,400.
