    Find the selling price, if : (i) C.P. = Rs.352; overheads = Rs.28 and profit = 20 (ii) C.P. = Rs.576; overheads = Rs.44 and loss = 16% (i) C.P. = Rs.352; overheads = Rs.28 and profit = 20 (ii) C.P. = Rs.576; overheads = Rs.44 and loss = 16%
    Ans : (i) C.P. = Rs 352
    Overheads = Rs. 28
    Net C.P. = Rs. 352 + Rs. 28
    = Rs. 380
    Profit = 20%
    We know = S.P. = (100 + Gain%)/100 × C.P.
    = (100 + 20)/100 × 380 =
    = Rs. 120/100 × 380
    = 12 × 38
    = Rs. 456 (ii) C.P. = Rs. 576
    Overheads = Rs. 44
    Net C.P. = Rs. 576 + Rs. 44
    = Rs. 620
    Loss = 16%
    We know :
    S.P. = (100 - Loss%)/100 × C.P.
    = (100 - 16)/100 × Rs. 620
    = Rs. 84/100 × 620
    = Rs. 5208/10
    = Rs. 520.80 (i) C.P. = Rs 352
    Overheads = Rs. 28
    Net C.P. = Rs. 352 + Rs. 28
    = Rs. 380
    Profit = 20%
    We know = S.P. = (100 + Gain%)/100 × C.P.
    = (100 + 20)/100 × 380 =
    = Rs. 120/100 × 380
    = 12 × 38
    = Rs. 456 (ii) C.P. = Rs. 576
    Overheads = Rs. 44
    Net C.P. = Rs. 576 + Rs. 44
    = Rs. 620
    Loss = 16%
    We know :
    S.P. = (100 - Loss%)/100 × C.P.
    = (100 - 16)/100 × Rs. 620
    = Rs. 84/100 × 620
    = Rs. 5208/10
    = Rs. 520.80
  • #5-i
    C.P. = Rs.352; overheads = Rs.28 and profit = 20
    Ans : C.P. = Rs 352
    Overheads = Rs. 28
    Net C.P. = Rs. 352 + Rs. 28
    = Rs. 380
    Profit = 20%
    We know = S.P. = (100 + Gain%)/100 × C.P.
    = (100 + 20)/100 × 380 =
    = Rs. 120/100 × 380
    = 12 × 38
    = Rs. 456
  • #5-ii
    C.P. = Rs.576; overheads = Rs.44 and loss = 16%
    Ans : C.P. = Rs. 576
    Overheads = Rs. 44
    Net C.P. = Rs. 576 + Rs. 44
    = Rs. 620
    Loss = 16%
    We know :
    S.P. = (100 - Loss%)/100 × C.P.
    = (100 - 16)/100 × Rs. 620
    = Rs. 84/100 × 620
    = Rs. 5208/10
    = Rs. 520.80
