Debtors as on 31.3.2008 = Rs. 1,40,000
.
Credit period allowed = 2 months
(i.e. Debtors as on 31.3.2008 is standing for credit sales of Feb and Mar 2008)
Credit sales per month (Rs. 1,40,000/2) = Rs. 70,000
.
Credit sales for the year 2007-2008 (Rs. 70,000 X 12) = Rs. 8,40,000
.
Add: Cash sales (Rs. 8,40,000 X 25/75) = Rs. 2,80,000
.
Total sales of the company for the year ended 31.3.2008 = Rs. 11,20,000
..
And yes, step by step marking is there while checking the papers.

Thanks sir for your help. :)

Total Debtors  180000/2 * 12 = 840000

Total Sales      840000/75 * 100 = 1120000
