Question : Total revenue from operations Rs. 9,00,000, Cash revenue from operations Rs. 3,00,000, Debtors Rs. 1,00,000, B/R Rs. 20,000. Trade Receivables Turnover Ratio will be :
Option 1: 5:1
Option 2: 10:1
Option 3: 7.5:1
Option 4: 9:1
Correct Answer: 10:1
Solution : The formula for trade receivables turnover ratio is equal to
Credit revenue from operations / average trade receivable
Credit revenue from operations= Total revenue for operations- cash revenue from operations.= 9,00,000-3,00,000= 6,00,000
Average trade receivables= 1,00,000+20,000/2 = 1,20,000/2= 60,000
trade receivables turnover ratio = 6,00,000/60,000=
Question : If $x-\frac{1}{x}=1$, then what is the value of $\left (\frac{1}{x-1}-\frac{1}{x+1}+\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}-\frac{1}{x^{2}-1} \right)\;$?
Option 1: $\pm \sqrt{5}$
Option 2: $\frac{2}{5}$
Option 3: $\pm\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$
Option 4: $\pm\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$
Correct Answer: $\pm\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$
Solution : Given: $x-\frac{1}{x}=1$ $⇒x^{2}-1=x$ $⇒x^{2}+1=x+2$ $\left (\frac{1}{x-1}-\frac{1}{x+1}+\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}-\frac{1}{x^{2}-1} \right)$ $=(\frac{2}{x^{2}-1}+\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}-\frac{1}{x^{2}-1})$ $=(\frac{1}{x^{2}-1}+\frac{1}{x^{2}+1})$ $=(\frac{2x^{2}}{(x^{2}-1)(x^{2}+1)})$ Using $x^{2}-1=x$ and $x^{2}+1=x+2$, we get, $=(\frac{2x^{2}}{(x)(x+2)})$ $=\frac{2x}{x+2}$ Solving $x^{2}-x-1=0$, we get $x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{5}}{2}$ So, $x+2=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{5}}{2}$ When $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$, $\frac{2x}{x+2}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$ When $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{5}}{2}$, $\frac{2x}{x+2}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\pm\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$.
