Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Rs. 46,000 Given: Selling price = Rs. 36,000 Loss % = 10% Profit % = 15% Formula used: S.P. = C.P. × (100 – L%)/100 S.P. = C.P. × (100 + P%)/100 Where S.P. → Selling price CP → Cost price L% → Loss % P% ⇒ Profit % Calculations: S.P. = C.P. × (100 – L%)/100 So, CP = (SP × 100)/(100 – L%) The cost price = (36000 × 100)/(100 – 10) = 36000 × (100/90) ⇒ CP = 40000 For 15% profit S.P. = C.P. × (100 + P%)/100 ⇒ S.P. = 40000 × (100 + 15)/100 = Rs. 46,000 ∴ The required selling price of the product is Rs. 46,000. |
