Total No. of coconuts = 3000
CP per coconut = 6
Total CP on coconuts = 3000 * 6 Rs = 18000 Rs
Additional Transport charges = 2000 Rs.
Total CP = 18000 + 2000 = 20000 Rs.
No. of coconuts sold at SP of Rs 10 each = 42% of total coconuts = 42/100 * 3000 = 42 * 30 = 1260 coconuts.
Total SP on these coconuts = 10 * 1260 = 12600Rs.
No. of coconuts sold at SP of Rs 7 each = 54% of total coconuts = 54/100 * 3000 = 54 * 30 = 16200 Rs.
Total SP = 12600 + 16200 Rs = 28800 Rs.
As SP > CP, there is a profit.
Profit % = (SP - CP) * 100% / CP
= 8800 * 100 / 20000 = 44%
CP per coconut = 6
Total CP on coconuts = 3000 * 6 Rs = 18000 Rs
Additional Transport charges = 2000 Rs.
Total CP = 18000 + 2000 = 20000 Rs.
No. of coconuts sold at SP of Rs 10 each = 42% of total coconuts = 42/100 * 3000 = 42 * 30 = 1260 coconuts.
Total SP on these coconuts = 10 * 1260 = 12600Rs.
No. of coconuts sold at SP of Rs 7 each = 54% of total coconuts = 54/100 * 3000 = 54 * 30 = 16200 Rs.
Total SP = 12600 + 16200 Rs = 28800 Rs.
As SP > CP, there is a profit.
Profit % = (SP - CP) * 100% / CP
= 8800 * 100 / 20000 = 44%
