      Question

      A furniture set was purchased for Rs. 850 and fixed with an

      additional Rs. 450. It was then tagged 40% above the cost but later sold at a 15% loss. What is the value of the discount?
      A Rs. 900 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 875 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 715 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Effective cost price of the furniture = 850 + 450 = Rs. 1300

      Marked price of the furniture = 1.4 Γ— 1300 = Rs. 1820

      Selling price of the furniture = 0.85 Γ— 1300 = Rs. 1105

      Therefore, discount offered = 1820 – 1105 = Rs. 715
