Question
A retailer buys a product at a price which is 25% less
than the marked price. He sells the product at a 20% profit on the cost price. If the marked price of the product is $150, what is the profit or loss percentage based on the marked price?Solution
Marked price = $150. Cost price = 75% of the marked price = $150 × 0.75 = $112.50. Selling price = Cost price × 1.20 = $112.50 × 1.20 = $135. Profit = Selling price - Marked price = $135 - $150 = -$15 (a loss). Profit percentage based on marked price = (-15 / 150) × 100 = -10%. The retailer incurs a loss of 10% based on the marked price.
