the cost of an almari in Rupees 2000 .a profit of 10% should be made after a discount of 20% . find the market price

Answer 1

CP of the Almirah = Rs. 2000

P% = 10

Now Profit = 10% of Rs 2000

SP= Profit + Cost Price

=> SP = Rs (200+2000)

=> SP = Rs 2200

Discount%= 20

Now, MP = ( SP × 100 / 100-D%)

=> MP = Rs. ( 2200×100/100-20)

=> MP = Rs (220000/80)

=>MP = Rs 2750 (ans)....
