    ranging from Rs. 2000 to Rs. 2300 and sold them at price ranging from Rs. 2150 to Rs. 2450. Find the maximum profit that can be earned by selling 4 such watches.

    B Rs. 4500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 4700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 4800 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 4 watches = 4 × 2000 = Rs. 8000 Maximum selling price of 4 watches = 4 × 3000 = Rs. 12000 Therefore, maximum profit that can be earned = 12000 – 8000 = Rs. 4000
