CP = 6000 EXPENSES = 400

TOTAL CP = 6000+ 400 = 6400

SP = 8000

GAIN = SP-CP = 8000-6400 = 1600

GAIN% = 1600/8000×100 = 20%

Answer 2

• The gain is equal to Rs. 1600 and gain percent is equal to 25% .

Given :-

• cost price = Rs. 6000
• overhead expenses = Rs. 400
• Selling price = Rs. 8000

To Find :-

• Total gain and gain percent ?

Formula used :-

• When selling price (SP) is greater than cost price (CP) , the seller has gain .
• Gain % = (Gain in Rs. × 100) ÷ CP

Solution :-

given that,

→ cost price = Rs. 6000

→ overhead expenses = Rs. 400

So,

→ Total cost price = cost price + overhead expenses = 6000 + 400 = Rs. 6400

now,

→ Selling price = Rs. 8000

as we can see that, SP > CP .

then,

→ Total gain = Selling price - Total cost price

→ Total gain = 8000 - 6400

→ Total gain = Rs. 1600

therefore,

→ Total gain % = (Total gain × 100) ÷ Total cost price

→ Total gain % = (1600 × 100) ÷ 6400

→ Total gain % = 1600 ÷ 64

→ Total gain % = 25% (Ans.)

Hence, the gain is equal to Rs. 1600 and gain percent is equal to 25% .
