C.p of 1 dozen pens = ₹216
1 dozen = 12
C.p of 12 pens = ₹216
money he paid for conveyance= ₹58
total money he spend on pens
= 216 + 58 = ₹274
profit made = ₹50
selling price of pens
= 274 + 50 = ₹324
discount given on per pen = ₹2
discount given on 12 pens ( 1 dozen)
= 12 × 2 = ₹24
market price of pens
= selling price + discount
= ₹324 + 24 = ₹348
