Practicing Success
A trader marks his goods at 60% above the cost price and allows a discount of 25%. What is his gain percent? |
20% 25% 30% 40% |
20% |
Let the cost price of the goods = 100 Mark up = 60% Now the Marked price of the goods = 160 Discount offered = 25% So, the selling price of the goods = 75% of 160 = 120 Now the profit = 120 - 100 = 20 Profit% = 20 × \(\frac{100}{100}\) = 20% |
