Sure! Let's solve this step-by-step, covering the Trading Account, Profit and Loss Account, and Balance Sheet.

### (a) Trading Account
The Trading Account is used to calculate the gross profit or loss. It includes the sales and the direct costs associated with goods sold.

#### Debit Side (Expenses):
1. Opening Stock: ₹72,000
2. Purchases: ₹25,000
3. Manufacturing Expenses: ₹27,000
4. Closing Stock: ₹74,600

#### Credit Side (Revenue):
1. Sales: ₹435,000
2. Sales Return: ₹3,000 (Reducing from Sales)

#### Calculation of Gross Profit:
1. Total Debit:
[tex]\[ 72,000 + 25,000 + 27,000 + 74,600 = 198,600 \][/tex]

2. Total Credit:
[tex]\[ 435,000 - 3,000 = 432,000 \][/tex]

3. Gross Profit:
[tex]\[ 432,000 - 198,600 = 233,400 \][/tex]

### (b) Profit and Loss Account
The Profit and Loss Account calculates the net profit by considering both operating and non-operating incomes and expenses.

#### Debit Side (Expenses and Appropriations):
1. Salaries: ₹72,000
2. Selling Expenses: ₹80,000
3. Outstanding Selling Expenses: ₹700
4. Office Expenses: ₹36,000

#### Credit Side (Income):
1. Gross Profit: ₹233,400 (from Trading Account)
2. Commission: ₹1,200
3. Commission Earned (not yet received): ₹500

#### Calculation of Net Profit:
1. Total Debit:
[tex]\[ 72,000 + 80,000 + 700 + 36,000 = 188,700 \][/tex]

2. Total Credit:
[tex]\[ 233,400 + 1,200 + 500 = 235,100 \][/tex]

3. Net Profit:
[tex]\[ 235,100 - 188,700 = 46,400 \][/tex]

### (c) Balance Sheet
The Balance Sheet shows the financial position of the business at a specific point in time. It lists assets, liabilities, and equity.

#### Assets:
1. Debtors: ₹557,500
2. Buildings: ₹9,500
3. Closing Stock: ₹74,600

#### Liabilities and Equity:

2. Creditors: ₹40,000
3. Net Profit: ₹46,400 (from Profit and Loss Account)
4. Closing Stock: ₹74,600 (also a part of assets but included here for balancing)

#### Total Assets:
1. Total Assets:
[tex]\[ 557,500 + 9,500 = 567,000 \][/tex]

#### Total Liabilities and Equity:
1. Total Liabilities and Equity:
[tex]\[ 81,300 + 40,000 + 46,400 + 74,600 = 242,300 \][/tex]

### Summary of Results:

(b) Net Profit: ₹46,400

(c) Balance Sheet Totals:
- Total Assets: ₹567,000
