12.50%= 650725.50
total Openings Stock = 4110443.25

and purchases is as
0.00% = 16178645.38

Closing stock is an asset to the business and is therefore a debit entry.

It is not possible to calculate closing stock by purchase and sales amounts. Let me explain with stock items, for example (assume with physical stock) example 1: Opening balance :   10,000    (20 qty * each cost 500) purchase balance:  20,000    (40qty *  Each cost 500) ------ Total stock           :  30,000 (means, I have 60 Qty @ Cost 500) ------ sales Balance   :  30,000 ( means I sold 50 qty @ cost 600) ------ Now I have stock balance 10 qty @ cost 500) (This is correct) ------ I think the following is equation is wrong.... Closing stock = opening stock + purchases - sales consider the above examples, the result is zero i.e, closing stock=10,000(Op Stock)+20,000(purch)-30,000(sales) =000000 IS IT Correct answer for closing stock (it's wrong). FINALLY YOU CAN'T CALCULATE CLOSING STOCK WITH AMOUNTS ONLY.

You need to know the sales at cost... All sales include a contribution to fixed costs then profit.. Remove this and then the above equation is correct.
