Hey Astone,
Thanx for replying back and for workin out with the
solution ..
I think for yr1 GP realized you have applied the GP rate
of Yr2...Bcz I see your answer is differnt
Actually I tried to work on it and came up with this
solution..
Gp realized=Cash collections *GP %
So year 1
GP realized is 150,000 and GP % is 30%
So Cash collections is (150,000*100)/30=500,000
In Yr2
Collections from Yr1 (90000*100)/30=300,000
Collections frm Yr2(200,000*100)/40=500,000
So ,
Accounts receivable Yr1= Sales -Cash collection
Yr1=1,000,000-500,000=500,000
Accounts Receivable in Yr2=Sales -Cash collection
Yr2=2,000,000-(300,000+500,000)=1,200,000
So total Account receivable is 1,200,000+500,000
So its 1,700,000 Correct answer
