Debtors are ₹96,000. Bad debts of ₹6,000 are to be written off and a 5% provision is to be made on the balance. What is the total revaluation loss?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹10,500

The governing concept is that bad debts and a newly created provision reduce the realizable value of debtors, so both are charged as revaluation losses. First, bad debts of ₹6,000 are written off from debtors of ₹96,000, leaving a balance of ₹90,000. The required provision is 5% of ₹90,000, calculated as ₹90,000 × 5/100 = ₹4,500. The total loss is therefore ₹6,000 + ₹4,500 = ₹10,500. Option B is correct. Option A includes only the provision, option D includes only the bad debts, and option C incorrectly calculates 5% on the original amount or otherwise combines the figures.
