ATQ, Let the cost price of the item coffee beans be Rs. ‘a’. Marked price of the item = Rs. 1.4a From option I: S.P of the article = 1.4a × 0.76 = Rs. 1.064a Profit percentage = 6.4% So, option I can be the answer. From option II: S.P of the article = 1.4a × 0.8 = Rs. 1.12a Profit percentage = 12% So, option II can be the answer. From option III: S.P of the article = 1.4a × 0.85 = Rs. 1.19a Profit percentage = 19% So, option III can be the answer. From option IV: S.P of the article = 1.4a × 0.82 = Rs. 1.148a Profit percentage = 14.8% So, option IV can be the answer.
