Answer 2

The Cost Of Production Of Sewing Machine Is Rs 3,093

GIVEN

Percentage gain of supplier = 12%

Percentage gain of dealer = 15%

Percentage gain of Retailer = 20%

Retail price of sewing machine = 4800.

TO FIND

cost of production of the sewing machine.

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as follows.

To calculate the Cost of production of a sewing machine we will first calculate the gains of the supplier dealer and The retailer.

Let the cost of production of a sewing machine be, x

It is given,

Percentage gain of supplier = 12%

Percentage gain of dealer = 15%

Percentage gain of Retailer = 20%

The Retail price of sewing machine will be taken as 100% of 4800

Since the supplier gains 12%. The supplier sells it for = (100%+12%) = 112% of x

Similarly,

The dealer sells it for = 115% of 112 of x

The retailer sells it for = 120% of 115 of 112% of x

The Retail price = 120% of 115 of 112% of x = 4800

Solving the above equation-

$\frac{112}{100} \times \frac{115}{100} \times \frac{120}{100} \times x = 4800$

Rearranging and cross multiplying the above expression,

$x = \frac{4800 \times 100 \times 100 \times 100}{115 \times 112 \times 120}$

x = 3,093

Hence, the cost of production of sewing machine is Rs 3,093
