Answer:

3% = $9

increase in production cost

Explanation:

11% of $100=11

(cost increase of raw material=$111)

20% of $80=16

(cost increase of overheads=$96)

15% of 120=18

(decrease in wage=120-18=$102)

Total production cost= 111+96+102=$309

Previous cost of production was =100+80+120=$300

So, how much cost is increased in production, calculate it. That $9

So, there's a increase in production cost, but how much percentage of increase, we have to find that.

What percent of $300 is $9

How do you calculate percent of your test paper? , it is similar to that.

Here you got 9 out of 300

Percentage =9/300 x 100 = 3%

Your answer is 3%
