Answers
For Ist article
Cp of Ist article= rs 3500
gain= 20%
Sp =rs{ 100+gain%/ 100 × Cp}
=rs(100+20/100 × 3500)
=rs(120/100 × 3500)
=rs 4200
For second article
Cp =rs2500
Loss=4%
Sp=rs{100-Loss%/100 ×Cp}
=rs(100-4/100 × 2500)
=rs(100-4/100 × 2500)
=rs(96/100 × 2500)
=rs 2400
total Cp= rs(3500+2500)=rs6000
total Sp=rs(4200+2400)=rs6600
since Sp>Cp i.e there is gain
gain=rs(6600-6000)=rs600
gain% =(gain/Cp × 100) %
=600/6000 × 100
=10%
