Answer:
We can calculate consecutive impact of % change using a simple formula. Suppose we have two changes x% and y% consecutively , so the total impact will be
(x)+(y)+{(x)*(y)/100} %.
If x or y is percentage increase in quantity then take +x or +y like (+x) or (+y) . For decrease take them (-x) and (-y). The symbol of + or - in answer indicate Increase or decrease respectively.
Decrease is 50% that is -50 and Increase is 50% that is +50 ; hence
Change = -50+50+{(-50 * +50)/100} %
= -250/100 %
= -25 %
Impact is -ve
hence loss = 25%
We can calculate the following using formula :
Total after two or more discounts
Change in salary
Profit or Loss
