Question 4 Profit Loss Discount and Value Added Tax Exercise 13.1

The cost price of 10 articles is equal to the selling price of 9 articles. Find theprofit percent.

Answer:

We know that the cost price of 10 article = selling price of 9 article

Let us consider CP of 1 article as Rs X

Selling price of 9 article = 10X Selling price of 1 article

= 10x/9

Profit = 10x/9 – x

= x/9

Profit % = Gain % = (gain/cost price) × 100

= (x/9)/x × 100

= 100/9

= 11 1/9%
