C Correct answer
Explanation

Capital fund = Assets - Liabilities. Assets are o/s subscription, stationery stock, fixed deposits, interest accrued, prepaid bill and billiards table at book value, i.e. 15,000 + 11,000 + 45,000 + 900 + 2000 + 20,000 = Rs. 93,900. Liabilities are an advance subscription of Rs. 4000. Thus, capital fund = 93,900 - 4000
