Question

A shopkeeper buys calculators for 100 each. He sells them for 250 each. Calculate the profit percentage on each calculator.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P. of 150 calculators=150×250= Rs. 37500

Transportation cost = Rs. 2500

Total C.P. =37500+2500= Rs. 40000

M.P. = 320 each

Discount = 5%

S.P. of each calculator =320−

100

5

×320

⇒320−14= Rs. 304

S.P. of 150 calculator =150×304= Rs. 45600

S.P. > C.P.

∴ Profit =45600−40000= Rs. 5600

Profit % =

40000

5600

×100=14%
