According to the firm's deed, 20% of the profit must be transferred to the general reserve. Net profit is ₹1,00,000. What amount will be transferred to the general reserve?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Twenty thousand rupees

20% of ₹1,00,000 = 1,00,000 × 20/100 = ₹20,000. This transfer is an appropriation of profit to the general reserve. Option B (₹10,000) reflects 10% and is a miscalculation; option C (₹50,000) is 50%; option D is the entire profit, not the prescribed percentage. Exam tip: to find 20% quickly divide the amount by 5 (₹1,00,000 ÷ 5 = ₹20,000).
