पर्याय

• I and II are true.

• II and III are true.

• III and IV are true.

• II and IV are true.

Answer 1

II and IV are true.

Explanation:

A Trading Account is prepared to determine the Gross Profit or Gross Loss of a business. It includes the opening stock balance on the debit side, along with purchases and direct expenses. It is prepared before the Profit and Loss Account and contains only nominal accounts, not personal or real accounts. Thus, statements (II) and (IV) are true.
