Q. If the manufacturer gains 10 %, the wholesale dealer 15 % and the retailer 25 % then the cost of Production of a table, if the retail price is Rs.1265
Option
a) 632.50
b) 800
c) 814
d) 834.24

• ANS. B
  
  Let the cost of production of the table be Rs X
  Then ,125% of 115% of 110% of x=1265
  1.25*1.15*1.1*X=1265
  
  1.58*X = 1265
  X=(1265/1.58)= Rs.800

• 110/100*115/100*125/100*x=1265
  ---> x= Rs 800

• assume cost of production x
  then 1st gain 10%,2nd gain 15%, 3rd gain 25%
  so.the total gain of production cost is - x+((10x/100)+(15x/100)+(25x/100))=1265
  x=approx 843
  so ans is (b)

• For retailer: retail price=S.P.=Rs.1265 ,gain%=25%
  so, C.P.=(100/100+gain%)*S.P.
  =1012 Rs.
  Now, C.P. for retailer is S.P. for wholesaler & gain%=15%
  so, C.P.=(100/115)*1012=880 Rs.
  Similarly, C.P. for wholesailer is S.P. for manufacturer & gain%=10%
  s0,C.P.=(100/110)*880=800 Rs.
  so, answer is B i.e. Rs.800

• let cost production of table=x
  a/c question,
  x+(x*10)/100=11x/10
  11x/10+{(11x*15)/(10*100)}=253x/200
  253x/200+{(253*25)/(200*100)=1265x/800
  which is equal to retail price of table
  1265x/800=1265
  so x=800
  ans.800

• say cost of production=x
  now,from question 125% 0f 115% of 110% of x=1265
  x=Rs.800
