Question

on selling a washing machine, the manufactuerer gains 10% the whole sale dealer 15% and the retailer 25% , if the retail price of the washing machine is 3795 then what is the production cost of the washing machine? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

production cost = 2400

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the production cost of washing maching is 'x'.

Now adding manufacturer cost it will be 1.1 x (10% profit).

Now Whole sale dealer will charge 15% more that will bring the value to (1.1 x)*1.15,

now retailer will charge 25% over this bringing the total to ((1.1 x)*1.15)*1.25 equal to 3795.

therefore 1.1 * 1.15 * 1.25 * x = 3795,

we get x = production cost = 2400
