Question

Find the selling price if the list price is $400 and the trade discount is as follows. 40% 20% 25% 331⁄3% 371/2% 162⁄3% 50% 5% 121/2% 55% 60% 271/2%

Answer 1

Answer:

See below selling prices

Step-by-step explanation:

40% of 400 = 400 * 40/100 = 160

20% of 400 = 400 * 20/100 = 80

25% of 400 = 400 * 25/100 = 100

33.3% of 400 = 400 * 33.3/100 = 133.2

37.5% of 400 = 400 * 37.5/100 = 150

16.7% of 400 = 400 * 16.7/100 = 66.8

50.5% of 400 = 400 * 50.5/100 = 202

12.5% of 400 = 400 * 12.5/100 = 50

55% of 400 = 400 * 55/100 = 220

60% of 400 = 400 * 60/100 = 240

27.5% of 400 = 400 * 27.5/100 = 110

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

• Given data

        Marked price (M.P) = 400$

• We know the relation between selling price(S.P) and marked price(M.P)

        $\mathbf{S.P =M.P\times \left ( 1-\frac{Percentage\ of\ discount}{100} \right )}$

• When percentage of discount = 40 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{40}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 240$

• When percentage of discount = 20 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{20}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 320$

• When percentage of discount = 25 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{25}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 300$

• When percentage of discount $\mathbf{=\frac{31}{3}}$ % (Percentage of discount can not be more than 100%)

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{31}{300} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 358.67$

• When percentage of discount $\mathbf{=\frac{71}{2}}$ % (Percentage of discount can not be more than 100%)

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{71}{200} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 258$

• When percentage of discount $\mathbf{=\frac{162}{3}}$ %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{162}{300} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 184$

• When percentage of discount =50 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{50}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 200$

• When percentage of discount =5 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{5}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 380$

• When percentage of discount $\mathbf{=\frac{121}{2}}$ %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{121}{200} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 158$

• When percentage of discount =55 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{55}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 180$

• When percentage of discount =60 %

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{60}{100} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 160$

• When percentage of discount $\mathbf{=\frac{27}{2}}$ % (Percentage of discount can not be more than 100%)

        $\mathbf{S.P =400\times \left ( 1-\frac{27}{200} \right )}$

        So

        Selling price(S.P) = 346$
