Question

    A Shopkeeper marks the price of a mobile phone at Rs. 6,000/- and gives a discount of 10%. He also gives a pen drive worth Rs. 600 free with the mobile phone and actually earns a profit of 25% by selling the mobile phone. Find the cost price of the phone.

    A Rs. 1,450 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 3,720 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 4,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 2,550 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    S.P = 90% of 6,000 = Rs. 5,400 & Profit = 25%
    ∴ C.P = 5400× ( 100/125) = 4,320
    Since pen drive worth Rs. 600 is also given,
    ∴ C.P of the mobile phone = 4,320 – 600 = Rs. 3,720.
