Answer:
Rs.42000
Step-by-step explanation:
SP for Nilash = Rs.35910
Profit = 12.5%
=> (100+12.5)% of C.P. = 35910
=> 112.5% of C.P. = 35910
=> 1125/1000 × C.P. = 35910
=> C.P. for Nilash = Rs.31920
Overhead charges = Rs.1680
Hence, initial CP for Nilash = Rs.(31920-1680) = Rs.30240
SP for Dhananjay = Rs.30240
Loss = 28%
=> (100-28)% of C.P. = 30240
=> 72% of C.P. = 30240
=> 72/100 × C.P. = 30240
=> C.P. = Rs.42000
