If 5500 copies are published and the transportation cost on them amounts to Rs. 82500, then what should be the selling price of the book so that the publisher can earn a profit of 25%? |
| Answer» For the publisher to earn a profit of 25%, S.P. = 125% of C.P. Also Transportation Cost = 10% of C.P. Let the S.P. of 5500 books be Rs. x. Then, 10 : 125 = 82500 : x x = Rs. 125 x 82500 = Rs. 1031250. 10 S.P. of one book = Rs. 1031250 = Rs. 187.50 . 5500 | |
