Answer»

Profit % = 23.28 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • Cost price of ALMIRAH is Rs 14360.
  • MONEY SPENT on it's transportation is Rs 240.
  • Selling price of almirah is Rs 18000.

To Find:

  • What is the gain or loss PERCENT on almirah?

Solution: Since, Rs 240 is spent on transportation of almirah. Therefore,

➟ Total C.P of almirah = Price at which it was bought + Money spent of transportation

➟ Total C.P = Rs (14360 + 240) = 14600

Now, on comparing both C.P and S.P we found that

  • S.P > C.P ( Hence, there is a profit )

As we know that

Profit = S.P C.P

➬ Profit = Rs (18000 – 14600)

➬ Rs 3400

Profit % = Profit/C.P \times 100

\implies{\rm } Profit % = 3400/14600 \times 100

\implies{\rm } 3400/146

\implies{\rm } 23.28%

Hence, there is profit of 23.28% on almirah.
