Question

Lalitabai sowed seeds worth Rs. 13,700 in her field. She had to spend Rs. 5,300
on fertilizers and spraying pesticides and Rs. 7,160 on labour. If on selling her
produce, she earned Rs. 35,400. What was her profit or her loss?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Profit of ₹9240

Step-by-step explanation:

CP = 13,700

Overhead expenses = 5,300+7,160 = 12,460

Total CP = 13,700+12,460 = 26,160

SP = 35,400

SP > CP (so, it is a profit)

Profit = SP - CP = 35,400 - 26,160 = 9240

So she has a profit of ₹9240

Answer 2

$\red{\textbf{Answer :- }}$

$\textsf{profit :- Rs 9240}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\red{\textbf{Given :-}}$

$\textsf{cost price of seeds = Rs 13700}$

$\textsf{money spent on fertilizers = Rs 5300}$

$\textsf{money spent on labour = Rs 7160}$

$\textsf{Total expenses = cost of seeds +}$

$\textsf{money spent on fertilizers + labour charges}$

$\textsf{= 13700 + 5300 + 7160}$

$\textsf{Rs 26160}$

$\textsf{so, total cost price is Rs 26160 }$

$\textsf{selling price of the produce = Rs 35400}$

$\textsf{since selling price is more than total}$

$\textsf{cost price ,so there is a profit }$

$\textsf{35400 - 26160}$

$\textsf{Rs 9240}$

$\textsf{lalitabai made a profit of Rs 9240}$
