Answer» i. Cost price = Rs 4500 Selling price = Rs 5000 Selling price is greater than cost price. ∴ There is a profit. ∴ Profit = Selling price – Cost price = 5000 – 4500 ∴ Profit = Rs 500 ii. Cost price = Rs 4100 Selling price = Rs 4090 Cost price is greater than selling price. ∴ There is a loss. ∴ Loss = Cost price – Selling price = 4100 – 4090 ∴ Loss = Rs 10 iii. Cost price = Rs 700 Selling price = Rs 799 Selling price is greater than cost price. ∴ There is a profit. ∴ Profit = Selling price – Cost price = 799 – 700 ∴ Profit = Rs 99 iv. Cost price = Rs 1000 Selling price = Rs 920 Cost price is greater than selling price. ∴ There is a loss. ∴ Loss = Cost price – Selling price = 1000 – 920 ∴ Loss = Rs 80
