    Solution

    Maximum profit will be earned when the cost price is least and selling price is maximum. Therefore, least cost price of 11 watches = 11 times; 1250 = Rs. 13750 Maximum selling price of 11 watches = 11 times; 1700 = Rs. 18700 Therefore, maximum profit that can be earned = 18700 ndash; 13750 = Rs. 4950
