Question
The cost price of four dozen samosas is Rs. 200. After
selling 36 samosas at the rate of Rs. 72 per dozen, the shopkeeper reduced the rate and sold the remaining samosas at the rate of Rs. 54 per dozen. Find the profit or loss percentage of the shopkeeper in this transaction.Solution
ATQ,
Cost price of 4 dozen samosas = Rs. 200
Selling price of 36 samosas = 36 × (72/12) = Rs. 216
Selling price of 12 samosas = 12 × (54/12) = Rs. 54
Selling price of 48 samosas = 216 + 54 = Rs. 270
Profit earned on selling 48 samosas = 270 – 200 = Rs. 70
Profit percentage = (70/200) × 100 = 35%
