Explanation
Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold
Note that cost of goods sold = Opening stock + purchase - closing stock
= 30,000 + 16,000 - 10,000
= 36,000
GP = 50,000 - 36,000
= 14,000
Note that cost of goods sold = Opening stock + purchase - closing stock
= 30,000 + 16,000 - 10,000
= 36,000
GP = 50,000 - 36,000
= 14,000
