      Question

      Find the cost of manufacturing each article if a

      manufacturer estimates that on inspection 10% of the articles he produces will be rejected. He accepts an order to supply 23,000 articles at Rs. 6.5 each. He estimates the profit on his outlay including the manufacturing of rejected articles, to be 25%.
      A Rs 5.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs 5.3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs 4.68 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs 4.35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      If 100 articles are manufactured then 10 will be rejected
      Total selling price of 90 articles = 90 × 6.5 = 585
      Total cost price = (585 x 100)/125 = 468
      cost of manufacturing per article = 468/100 = Rs 4.68
