Answer 2

The manufacturing cost is Rs.12803.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the manufacturing cost be x

Profit % = 20 %

Cost including profit = $x+20\%x = x+0.2x=1.2x$

Sales tax = 10%

Cost including tax = $1.2 x + 10\%(1.2x)=1.2x+0.1(1.2x)=1.32x$

We are given that the price is 16900

So, $16900=1.32x\\\frac{16900}{1.32}=x\\12803.03=x$

Hence The manufacturing cost is Rs.12803.03
