Current Assets-

Closing stock- sales*(8/52)*100/120 = 6500000*(8/52)*100/120 = 833333

Debtors- sales* (10/52)*100/120 = 6500000 * (10/52)*100/120 = 1041666

total current assets = 1875000




less:

Current liabilities-

Creditors- sales *(4/52)*100/120 = 6500000 *(4/52)*100/120= 416666

total current liabilities= 416666


Working capital = total current assets - total current liabilities = 1458333


net working capital = working capital + safety(contingency ) = 1458333 + 10% = 1604166.

At all places figure of sales have been converted into actual costs by removing the profit.

i.e by multiplying with 100/120...

thanks brother for ur time given in solving my problem..............
