Question

If a shopkeeper wants to get a profit of 8% after giving a discount of 10%, how much per cent above his cost price should he mark his goods?
​

Answer 1

Let Mark Price is Rs. 120

When 10% discount is given we have  120 - 10%of120 = (120 - 12) = 108

So Selling Price is Rs. 108 and we have to make 8% profit on it so our Cost Price will become Rs. 100

By this we have MP 120 and CP 100 so we have raised our MP by 20%
