Product B costs 150 and is sold for 180.
Product C costs 100 and is sold for 140.
Which product should be manufactured more in order to have maximum profit
percentage?​

Answer 1

Answer:

To remove profit

A: 260-200=60

B:180-150=30

C:140-100=40

A gives maximum profit of Rs. 60

therefore it should be manufactured in a larger number

I have no idea if I'm correct

feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Answer 2

C.P of Product A=200

S.P of Product A=260

Gain=S.P-C.P

=260-200=60

Gain%=Gain/CP×100

= 60/200×100

=30%

C.P of Product B=150

S.P of Product B=180

Gain=180-150=30

Gain%= 30/150×100

=20%

C.P of Product C=100

S.P of Product C=140

Gain=140-100=40

Gain%=40/100×100

=40%

Hence,Product C should be manufactured more in order to have maximum profit percentage.

Hope it helps you.
