A VCR and TV were bought for Rs. 8,000 each.The shopkeeper made a loss of 4% on the VCR and a profit of 8% on the TV. Find the gain or loss percent on the whole transaction

ANSWER

Given:

Cost price(CP) of each article=Rs. 8000

Profit of 8% on TV

Loss of 4% on VCR

Cost price of TV =Rs. 8000

Profit on TV = Cost price × profit %

Profit on TV =8% of 8000

=8000×

100

8

=80×8

=Rs. 640

Cost Price of VCR =Rs. 8000

Loss on VCR = Cost price × Loss %

Loss on VCR=4% of 8000

=8000×

100

4

=80×4

=Rs. 320

Since profit is more than loss,

Hence, the shopkeeper gains net profit

Net Profit=640−320=Rs. 320

Now

Total cost Price of both article=8000+8000=Rs. 16000

Profit(%)=

C.P

Profit (%)=

Profit(%)=2%

Hence, the gain in the whole transaction =2%.
