At what value were the assets taken over by Raman :-

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Sold first: 50%50\% of 3,60,000=1,80,0003,60,000 = 1,80,000. Balance =1,80,000= 1,80,000.

Next sold: 30%30\% of 1,80,000=54,0001,80,000 = 54,000.

Book value left with Raman =1,80,000−54,000=1,26,000= 1,80,000 - 54,000 = 1,26,000.

Taken over at 25%25\% above book value =1,26,000×1.25=1,57,500= 1,26,000 \times 1.25 = 1,57,500.

The profit of 75,00075,000 and the 12%12\% discount are distractors and do not affect this figure.
