    A) Rs. 10,000        

    B) Rs. 25,000

    C) Rs. 40,000        

    D) Rs. 15,000

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Rs. 40,000
    Hint:
    Current Ratio =\[\frac{Current Assets}{Current Liabilities}\] =\[\frac{4}{1}\]=\[\frac{CA}{CL}\]
    \[\therefore \]CA= 2.5CL                         ….(i)
    Quick Ratio =\[\frac{Quick Assets}{Current Liabilities}\] =>\[\frac{2.5}{1}\]=\[\frac{QA}{CL}\] QA=2.5 CL                                                                           ...(ii)
    Inventories = CA - QA
    15,000 = 4 CL - 2.5 CL
    15.000 = 1.5 CL
    \[\therefore \] CL=\[\frac{15,000}{1.5}\]=> Rs. 10,000
    CA = 4CL = 4 \[\times \] 10,000 = Rs. 40,000
