●SALES PRICE = A commodity sold on which price is known as sales price.

ꜱ.ᴩ. = ᴄ.ᴩ. + ɢᴀɪɴ
ᴏʀ
ꜱ.ᴩ. = ᴄ.ᴩ. -ʟᴏꜱꜱ

●COST PRICE = Orignal price of a commodity is known as cost price.

ᴄ.ᴩ. = ꜱ.ᴩ. -ɢᴀɪɴ
ᴏʀ
ᴄ.ᴩ. = ꜱ.ᴩ. + ʟᴏꜱꜱ

●Loss = if we sold a commodity in less amount than it's cost price or under discount we earn loss .
ʟᴏꜱꜱ = ᴄᴩ - ꜱᴩ

●GAIN / PROFIT = If we sold a commodity in more than its cost price we earn Gain / ᴩʀᴏꜰɪ .

ɢᴀɪɴ = ꜱᴩ - ᴄᴩ

●DISCOUNT = Discount is an amount which we deduct in cost price at the time of sale .

ꜱ.ᴩ. = 495
ɢᴀɪɴ = 10%
ᴄ.ᴩ. = ???

ᴡᴇ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ᴛʜᴀᴛ -
ᴄᴩ = ꜱᴩ / 100 + ɢᴀɪɴ % × 100
= 495 /110 × 100
= 4.5 × 100
= ₹450
