Answer:

Profit and Loss: Concept of Discounts and Marked Price Explained

In the first part of Profit and Loss series, we learnt the basic definitions and the meaning of Cost Price, Selling Price, Marked price etc. Let us revise the definition of Marked Price. As we saw earlier, traders are in the habit of marking their articles at a certain price above their costs. Then the discounts they offer are on this marked price, thereby they actually make sure that have already factored in the profit they want.

Discounts are offered on the marked price and the selling price is determined by the discount offered on the marked price. For the process of simplification, let us assume:

C = Cost price

S = Selling price

M = Market price

D% = Discount

G% = Gain

Now,

Discount = D% of marked price, M

Discount = Marked Price – Selling Price

Marked Price – Amount of Discount = Selling Price

M (1-D%) = Selling Price

Also, Selling Price = Cost Price + Gain

Thus,

M (1-D%) = C (1 + G%)

Or in other words

Marked Price (1 – Discount%) = Cost Price (1 + Gain%)

Answer : 35294.11 Rs. ✔️

Solution :

Given that :

Cost Price of TV = 25000 Rs.

Profit % = 20%

So, Selling Price = 25000 × (100+20)/100

=> Selling Price = 25000×120/100 = 30000 Rs.

Also, Given that :

Discount% = 15%

Market Price = Selling Price × 100/(100-D%)

=> Market Price = 30000 × 100/(100-15)

=> Market Price = 30000 × 100/85 = 35294.11 Rs.

So, Market Price of TV will be 35294.11 Rs.
