Reveal answer & explanation

Correct answer: B) Rs. 253,200

Explanation

Total units = 36,000 + 41,000 = 77,000. Total cost = (36,000 x 3.9) + (41,000 x 4.5) = 140,400 + 184,500 = 324,900. Average cost per unit = 324,900 / 77,000 = Rs. 4.21948. Cost of goods sold = 60,000 x 4.21948 = 253,168.8 (rounded in typical exams to 253,200).
