What will be the amount of credit purchases, if the opening balance of creditors is Rs.7,600; cash paid to creditors Rs.20,000; discount allowed by them Rs.500; Returns Outward are Rs.2,400; Bills payable accepted Rs.4,600 and the closing balance of creditors is Rs.9,500?
Rs.29,400
The correct answer is option 2. The formula to calculate credit purchases is: Credit Purchases = Closing Balance of Creditors + Returns Outward + Bills Payable Accepted + Cash Paid to Creditors - Opening Balance of Creditors - Discount Allowed. So, Credit Purchases = Rs.9,500 + Rs.2,400 + Rs.4,600 + Rs.20,000 - Rs.7,600 - Rs.500 = Rs.29,400.
