price of a dozen oranges = Rs 4
cost of oranges = Rs 4 * 504 / 12 = Rs 168
Selling price of oranges = Rs 5 a dozen
revenue from 240 oranges = Rs 5 * 240 / 12 = Rs 100
Selling price of oranges = Rs 6 a dozen
revenue from (504 - 240) oranges = 264 * Rs 6 / 12 = Rs 132
total revenue = Rs 232
total gain = Rs 232 - Rs 168 = Rs 64
gain % = 64 / 168 * 100 = 800/21 % = 38.5 %
cost of oranges = Rs 4 * 504 / 12 = Rs 168
Selling price of oranges = Rs 5 a dozen
revenue from 240 oranges = Rs 5 * 240 / 12 = Rs 100
Selling price of oranges = Rs 6 a dozen
revenue from (504 - 240) oranges = 264 * Rs 6 / 12 = Rs 132
total revenue = Rs 232
total gain = Rs 232 - Rs 168 = Rs 64
gain % = 64 / 168 * 100 = 800/21 % = 38.5 %
