Read Solution (Total 2)
-
- if the discount price was 85% which is = 510
then the marked price is 100% = (100/85)*510=600
then new selling price is 105%=(105/100)*600=630
hence profit earned is 630-510=120 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(1)
- total profit percent is 20%. profit amount = 120
Market price = (510/85)*100 = 600
5% above Market price = (600/100)*105 = 630
So total profit amount = 630 - 510 = 120
profit percent = (120/600)*100 = 20% - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
