Answer» Answer: MP is ALWAYS expressed as a PERCENTAGE of CP. Discount is always applied on MP. PROFIT is always expressed as a percentage of CP. Coming to the problem : MP = 250 Discount = 10% of MP = 25 SP = MP - Discount = 250 - 25 = 225 Since he is making 25% profit on goods sold, then SP represents 125% of CP. => 125/100 x CP = 225 => CP =225 x 100/125 = 180 |
