Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Purchases = Payment - Decrease in Creditors - Increase in Advance

= 3,70,000 - (25,000 - 17,000) - (18,000 - 11,000)

= 3,70,000 - 8,000 - 7,000 = 3,55,000.

Cost of Medicine Consumed = Opening Stock + Purchases - Closing Stock

= 62,000 + 3,55,000 - 54,000 = 3,63,000.
