      A shopkeeper sold an article at marked price and got a

      profit of 50%. If he had given a discount of 20%, then find his new profit percent.

      C 18% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 15% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Let the cost price of the product be Rs. 100 Then, marked price = selling price = 100 × 1.50 = Rs. 150 If he allows a discount of 20%, then new selling price = 0.80 × 150 = Rs. 120 New Profit = (120 – 100) = Rs. 20 So, required profit percentage = 20%
