A Seller Uses 840 Gm In Place Of 1 Kg To Sell His Goods. Find His Actual Profit/loss % When He Sells His Article On 4% Loss On Cost Price ?

Answer»

Let 1KG of Rs. 100 then 840gm is of Rs. 84.

Now (LABEL on can 1kg but contains 840kg ) so for customer it is of Rs. 100 and further gives 4% DISCOUNT [he sells his ARTICLE on 4% loss on cost price.] 

So now S.P = Rs. 96

But ACTUALLY it contains 840 gm so C.P for shopkeeper = Rs. 84

S.P = Rs. 96

C.P = Rs. 84

Profit% = {(S.P-C.P)/C.P}x100

{(96-84)/84} x 100 = 14.28571429% PROFIT.
