Option D

5,75,000

Solution :

The correct option is 5,75,000.

Here is the step-by-step calculation to find the net profit of the company:

Step 1: Calculate the Total Revenue from Operations
Let the Total Revenue from Operations be represented by R.
The problem states that Cash Revenue from operations is 20% of the Total Revenue. Therefore, the remaining portion of the Total Revenue must be Credit Revenue from operations.
Credit Revenue from Operations = Total Revenue - Cash Revenue
Credit Revenue from Operations = 100% - 20% = 80% of Total Revenue

Given that Credit Revenue from Operations is Rs. 20,00,000, we can write:
80 % of  R = Rs.  20,00,000
0.80 × R = 20,00,000
R = 20,00,000 0.80 = Rs.  25,00,000
So, the Total Revenue from Operations is Rs. 25,00,000.

Step 2: Calculate the Gross Profit
The Gross Profit ratio is given as 25% of the Total Revenue from operations.
Gross Profit = 25 % × Total Revenue
Gross Profit = 25 100 × 25,00,000 = Rs.  6,25,000
Thus, the Gross Profit of the company is Rs. 6,25,000.

Step 3: Calculate the Net Profit
Net Profit is calculated by deducting indirect expenses from the Gross Profit.
Given that the Indirect Expenses are Rs. 50,000:
Net Profit = Gross Profit Indirect Expenses
Net Profit = 6,25,000 50,000 = Rs.  5,75,000
Therefore, the Net Profit of the company is Rs. 5,75,000.
