    Question

    Find the cost of manufacturing each article if a

    manufacturer estimates that on inspection 19% of the articles he produces will be rejected. He accepts an order to supply 65,000 articles at Rs. 5 each. He estimates the profit on his outlay including the manufacturing of rejected articles to be 25%.
    A Rs 8.30 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs 3.24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs 4.10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs 4.30 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    If 100 articles are manufactured then 19 will be rejected
    Total selling price of 81 articles = 81 × 5 = 405
    Total cost price = (405 x 100)/125 = 324
    cost of manufacturing per article = 324/100 = Rs 3.24
