Question Detail
Sahil purchased a machine at Rs 10000, then got it repaired at Rs 5000, then gave its transportation charges Rs 1000. Then he sold it with 50% of profit. At what price he actually sold it.
- Rs. 22000
- Rs. 24000
- Rs. 26000
- Rs. 28000
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Question seems a bit tricky, but it is very simple.
Just calculate all Cost price, then get 150% of CP.
C.P. = 10000 + 5000 + 1000 = 16000
150% of 16000 = 150/100 * 16000 = 24000
1. If the manufacturer gains 10 %, the wholesale dealer 15 % and the retailer 25 %, then find the cost of production of a table if the retail price was Rs 1265
- Rs. 750
- Rs. 800
- Rs. 850
- Rs. 900
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the cost of Production = Rs. P
Then, as per question,
\begin{aligned}
=> \left( \frac{125}{100} *\frac{115}{100}*\frac{110}{100} * P \right) = 1265\\
=> \frac{253}{160}P = 1265 \\
=> P = 800
\end{aligned}
2. If the cost price is 25% of selling price. Then what is the profit percent.
- 150%
- 200%
- 300%
- 350%
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let the S.P = 100
then C.P. = 25
Profit = 75
Profit% = 75/25 * 100 = 3005
3. If the cost price of 12 items is equal to the selling price of 16 items, the loss percent is
- 20%
- 25%
- 30%
- 35%
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the Cost Price of 1 item = Re. 1
Cost Price of 16 items = 16
Selling Price of 16 items = 12
Loss = 16 - 12 = Rs 4
Loss % = (4/16)* 100 = 25%
4. The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit is 25%, find out the value of x
- 13
- 14
- 15
- 16
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the Cost Price of one article = Rs. 1
CP of x articles = Rs. x
CP of 20 articles = 20
Selling price of x articles = 20
Profit = 25% [Given]
\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow \left (\dfrac{SP - CP }{CP}\right ) = \dfrac{25}{100} = \dfrac{1}{4}
& \Rightarrow \dfrac{\left(20-x \right )}{x} = \dfrac{1}{4} \\
& \Rightarrow 80 - 4x = x \\
& \Rightarrow 5x = 80 \nonumber \\
& \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{80}{5} = 16 \\
\end{aligned}
5. A material is purchased for Rs. 600. If one fourth of the material is sold at a loss of 20% and the remaining at a gain of 10%, Find out the overall gain or loss percentage
- \begin{aligned} 4\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 1\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
We need to get the Total selling price to solve this question. Because after getting selling price we can get profit or loss, then we can calculate profit% or loss%
So lets solve this:
Price Received by selling one fourth of the material at a loss of 20% =
(1/4) * 600 * (80/100) = Rs. 120
Price Received by remaining material at a gain of 10% =
(3/4) * 600 * (110/100) = Rs. 495 [Note: 1-(1/4) = 3/4]
Total Selling Price = 120 + 465 = Rs. 615
Profit = 615 - 600 = 15
\begin{aligned}
Profit\% = \left( \frac{Gain}{Cost} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{15}{600} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \frac{5}{2}\% = 2\frac{1}{2}\%
\end{aligned}
