Step-by-step explanation:
CP OF HOUSE=300000
SPEND ON ITS REPAIR=65000
TOTAL CP=300000+65000
=365000
SP=325000
LOSS=CP-SP
=365000-325000
=40000
LOSS%=LOSS×100/CP
=40000×100/365000
=10.9%
THEREFORE LOSS%=10.9%
GIVEN :-
- CP of old house = Rs. 300000
- SP of old house = Rs. 450000
TO FIND :-
- The profit or loss %.
SOLUTION :-
In the question it is given that,
⇒ Overhead expenses = 20 % of 300000
⇒ Overhead expenses = 20/100 × 300000
⇒ Overhead expenses = 20 × 3000
⇒ Overhead expenses = Rs. 60000
Now as we know that,
⇢ Actual CP = CP + Overhead expenses.
⇢ Actual CP = 300000 + 60000
⇢ Actual CP = Rs. 360000
Now , we observed that,
⇒ SP > Actual CP
⇒ Profit = SP - Actual CP
⇒ Profit = 450000 - 360000
⇒ Profit = Rs. 90000
Now we have to find the Profit percent.
⇒ Profit % = Profit/Actual CP × 100 %
⇒ Profit % = 90000/360000 × 100 %
⇒ Profit % = 9/36 × 100 %
⇒ Profit % = 100/4 %
⇒ Profit % = 25 %
Hence the required profit percentages is 25 %.
