Solution

ATQ, Let the cost price of the Smartwatch be Rs. 's' Statement I: According to the question, (1400 – s) = 2(1200 – s) Or, 1400 – s = 2400 – 2s Or, s = 1000 Therefore, profit earned = 1200 – 1000 = Rs. 200 So, data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question. Statement II: Profit earned on the Smartwatch = (1/6) × 1200 = Rs. 200 So, data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Statement III: Cost price of the Smartwatch = 1200 × (5/6) = Rs. 1000 Therefore, profit earned = 1200 – 1000 = Rs. 200 So, data in statement III alone is sufficient to answer the question. Statement IV: Cost price of the Smartwatch = Rs. 1000 Profit earned = 1200 – 1000 = Rs. 200 So, data in statement IV alone is sufficient to answer the question Therefore, data in each of the statements alone is sufficient to answer the question.
