Question 11: Anil buys 12 toys and labels each with the same selling price. He sells 8 toys initially at 20% discount on the labeled price. Then he sells the remaining 4 toys at an additional 25% discount on the discounted price. Thus, he gets a total of Rs. 2112, and makes a 10% profit. With no discounts, his percentage of profit would have been
Answer:
B.
Let’s take Selling Price = P
= (8 × 0.8 P) + 4 × {0.8P – 1/4= (0.8)P}
= {(8 × 0.8 P) + 4 × (0.6P)}
Total Selling Price = 8.8 P
CP = 8.8P/1.1= = 8P (Since he makes 10% profit)
SP = 12P
So, Profit from 8P to 12P = 4P/8P= = 50%
