    C Rs. 7650 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 7700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Maximum profit will be earned when the cost price is least and selling price is maximum. Therefore, least cost price of 17 watches = 17 × 800 = Rs. 13600 Maximum selling price of 17 watches = 17 × 1250 = Rs. 21250 Therefore, maximum profit that can be earned = 21250 – 13600 = Rs. 7650
