The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the total revenue, total costs, and then determine the net profit after taxes. ### Step 1: Calculate the total revenue from sugar sales. - The factory produces 5000 tons of sugar per annum. - Convert tons to kilograms: \[ 5000 \text{ tons} = 5000 \times 1000 \text{ kg} = 5,000,000 \text{ kg} \] - The selling price of sugar is Rs. 18 per kg. - Therefore, the total revenue (TR) is: \[ TR = \text{Quantity} \times \text{Selling Price} = 5,000,000 \text{ kg} \times 18 \text{ Rs/kg} = 90,000,000 \text{ Rs} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the total manufacturing cost. - Manufacturing cost (including raw material) is Rs. 3.2 per kg. - Labor and packing charges are Rs. 1.8 per kg. - Maintenance and utilities expenses are Rs. 2 per kg. - General expenses are Rs. 3 per kg. - Total manufacturing cost (MC) per kg is: \[ MC = 3.2 + 1.8 + 2 + 3 = 10 \text{ Rs/kg} \] - Therefore, the total manufacturing cost for the year is: \[ \text{Total MC} = 5,000,000 \text{ kg} \times 10 \text{ Rs/kg} = 50,000,000 \text{ Rs} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the gross profit before tax. - Gross profit (GP) is calculated as: \[ GP = TR - \text{Total MC} = 90,000,000 \text{ Rs} - 50,000,000 \text{ Rs} = 40,000,000 \text{ Rs} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the tax on gross profit. - The tax rate is 20%. - Therefore, the tax amount (T) is: \[ T = 0.20 \times GP = 0.20 \times 40,000,000 \text{ Rs} = 8,000,000 \text{ Rs} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the net profit after tax. - Net profit (NP) is calculated as: \[ NP = GP - T = 40,000,000 \text{ Rs} - 8,000,000 \text{ Rs} = 32,000,000 \text{ Rs} \] ### Final Answer: The net profit of the production of the factory per annum is **Rs. 32,000,000**.
