Answer 1

Acc to the question,

The cost price for first item is Rs 1800 and it has no additional expense. But there is a loss incurred of 7% while selling it.

Therefore its selling price will be : Rs 1800 - 1800 x 7/100 = Rs 1800 - 126 = Rs 1674.

Similarly for the second item the cost price is Rs 630 not only this but also it has an additional expense of Rs 70. Therefore actual cost price adding the overheads is Rs 700.

The profit % is 10 on this item. So the selling price = Rs 700 + 700 x 10/100 = Rs 700 + 70 = Rs 770.

Similarly for the second item the cost price is Rs 1050 not only this but also it has an additional expense of Rs 150. Therefore actual cost price adding the overheads is Rs 1200.

The profit % is 4 on this item. So the selling price = Rs 1200 + 1200 x 4/100 = Rs 1200 + 48 = Rs 1248.
