Answer 2

Answer: C.P = Rs. 24,500,  New S.P = 26,460

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : S.P = Rs. 23520

            Loss = 4%

To Find : C.P of T.V

Solution :

Let the C.P be Rs. x

⇒ C.P = $(\frac{100}{100 - Loss} ) * S.P$

⇒ C.P = $\frac{100}{96} * 23520$

∴ C.P = Rs. 24500

To make a gain of 8%, the new S.P should be

⇒ New S.P = Old S.P * $\frac{100 + gain}{100 - loss}$

⇒ New S.P = 23520 * $\frac{108}{96}$

∴ New S.P = Rs. 26,460
