Solution
20%
Explanation:
Proprietary Ratio = `"Shareholder’s Funds"/"Total Assets" xx 100`
Shareholder’s Funds = Share Capital + General Reserve (−) Debit Balance of Profit & Loss
= 1,00,000 + 2,00,000 − 50,000
= ₹ 2,50,000
Total Assets = Inventory + Trade Receivables + Marketable Securities + Cash at Bank + Tangible Fixed Assets
= 2,50,000 + 2,00,000 + 30,000 + 20,000 + 7,50,000
= ₹ 12,50,000
Proprietary Ratio = `(2,50,000)/(12,50,000) xx 100`
= 20%
