Question

an entrepreneur buys a compact disc from a manufacturer $1245. Calculate the selling price if he makes a profit of 30% and 15%

Answer 1

Answer:

1431.75$

1618.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

selling price = cost price + profit

cost price of the compact disc = $1245

selling price of the compact disc at 15% profit = $1245 + (15% of $1245 ) = 1431.75$

selling price of the compact disc at 30% profit = $1245 + (30% of $1245 ) = 1618.5$

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

A SHOPKEEPR BUYS A STOVE FROM A MANUFACTURE FOR $100 CALCULATE

To Find :-

THE SELLING PRICE IF HE MAKES A PROFIT OF 15% B) THE SELLING PRICE IF HE MAKES A LOSS OF 15%

Solution :-

We know that

SP = (100 + Profit%/100) × CP

SP = (100 + 15/100) × 100

SP = 115/100 × 100

SP = $115

Now,

SP = (100 - Loss%/100) × CP

SP = (100 - 15/100) × 100

SP = 85/100 × 100

SP = $85
