(ii) C.P. = Rs 980, S.P. = Rs 940 Profit/Loss =?
(iii) C.P. = Rs 720, S.P. =?, Profit = Rs 55.50
(iv) C.P. =? S.P. = Rs 1254, Loss = Rs 32
Solution:
(i) Given CP = Rs. 1200, SP = Rs. 1350
Clearly CP < SP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (1350 – 1200)
= Rs. 150
(ii) Given CP = Rs. 980, SP = Rs. 940
Clearly CP > SP. So, loss.
Loss = CP - SP
= Rs. (980 – 940)
= Rs. 40
(iii) CP = Rs. 720, SP =?, profit = Rs. 55.50
Profit = SP – CP
55.50 = SP – 720
SP = (55.50 + 720)
= Rs. 775.50
(iv) CP =?, SP = Rs. 1254, loss = Rs. 32
Loss = CP – SP
32 = CP – 1254
CP = (1254 + 32)

= Rs. 300
(iii) Profit = Rs 4000
Explanation:
Given CP = Rs. 3355, SP = Rs. 7355,

= Rs. 300
(iii) Profit = Rs 4000
Explanation:
Given CP = Rs. 3355, SP = Rs. 7355,

= Rs. 4000
(iv) C. P. = Rs 2395.50
Explanation:
Given CP = ?, SP = Rs. 2390, loss = Rs. 5.50

(iii) C.P. = Rs 332, S.P. = Rs 350
(iv) C.P. = Rs 1500, S.P. = Rs 1500
Solution:
(i) Given CP = Rs. 4560, SP = Rs. 5000
Here, clearly SP > CP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (5000 – 4560)
= Rs. 440
Profit % = {(Profit/CP) x 100} %
= {(440/4560) x 100} %
= {0.0965 x 100} %
Profit % = 9.65%
(ii) Given CP = Rs. 2600, SP = Rs. 2470.
Here, clearly CP > SP. So, loss.
Loss = CP – SP
= Rs. (2600 – 2470)
= Rs. 130
Loss % = {(Loss/CP) x 100} %
= {(130/2600) x 100} %
= {0.05 x 100} %
Loss % = 5%
(iii) Given CP = Rs. 332, SP= Rs. 350.
Here, clearly SP > CP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (350 – 332)
= Rs. 18
Profit% = {(Profit/CP) x 100} %
= {(18/332) x 100} %
= {0.054 x 100} %

= Rs. 300
(iii) Profit = Rs 4000
Explanation:
Given CP = Rs. 3355, SP = Rs. 7355,

= Rs. 4000
(iv) C. P. = Rs 2395.50
Explanation:
Given CP = ?, SP = Rs. 2390, loss = Rs. 5.50

Solution:
(i) Given CP = Rs. 4560, SP = Rs. 5000
Here, clearly SP > CP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (5000 – 4560)
= Rs. 440
Profit % = {(Profit/CP) x 100} %
= {(440/4560) x 100} %
= {0.0965 x 100} %
Profit % = 9.65%

= {(130/2600) x 100} %
= {0.05 x 100} %
Loss % = 5%
(iii) Given CP = Rs. 332, SP= Rs. 350.
Here, clearly SP > CP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (350 – 332)
= Rs. 18

Gain % = {(Gain/CP) x 100) %
= {(40/4000) x 100} %
= (0.01 x 100) %
Gain % = 1%
(ii) Given SP = Rs. 1272, loss = Rs. 328
Loss = CP – SP
Hence, CP = Loss+ SP
= Rs. 328 + Rs. 1272
= Rs. 1600
Loss % = {(Loss/CP) x 100} %
= {(328/1600) x 100%
Loss % = 20.5%
(iii) Given SP = Rs. 1820, gain = Rs. 420

Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (1350 – 1200)
= Rs. 150
(ii) Given CP = Rs. 980, SP = Rs. 940
Clearly CP > SP. So, loss.
Loss = CP - SP
= Rs. (980 – 940)
= Rs. 40
(iii) CP = Rs. 720, SP =?, profit = Rs. 55.50

= Rs. 12
(ii) C.P. = Rs 300
Explanation:
Given CP = ?, SP = Rs. 450, profit = Rs. 150
Profit = SP – CP
150 = 450 – CP
CP = Rs. (450 – 150)
= Rs. 300
(iii) Profit = Rs 4000
Explanation:
Given CP = Rs. 3355, SP = Rs. 7355,

Profit = SP – CP
Profit = Rs. (7355 – 3355)
= Rs. 4000
(iv) C. P. = Rs 2395.50
Explanation:
Given CP = ?, SP = Rs. 2390, loss = Rs. 5.50
Loss = CP – SP
5.50 = CP – 2390
= Rs. (5.50 + 2390)

(iii) C.P. = Rs 332, S.P. = Rs 350
(iv) C.P. = Rs 1500, S.P. = Rs 1500
Solution:
(i) Given CP = Rs. 4560, SP = Rs. 5000
Here, clearly SP > CP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (5000 – 4560)
= Rs. 440
Profit % = {(Profit/CP) x 100} %
= {(440/4560) x 100} %
= {0.0965 x 100} %
Profit % = 9.65%
(ii) Given CP = Rs. 2600, SP = Rs. 2470.
Here, clearly CP > SP. So, loss.
Loss = CP – SP
= Rs. (2600 – 2470)
= Rs. 130
Loss % = {(Loss/CP) x 100} %
= {(130/2600) x 100} %
= {0.05 x 100} %
Loss % = 5%
(iii) Given CP = Rs. 332, SP= Rs. 350.
Here, clearly SP > CP. So, profit.
Profit = SP – CP
= Rs. (350 – 332)
= Rs. 18
Profit% = {(Profit/CP) x 100} %
= {(18/332) x 100} %
= {0.054 x 100} %
Profit % = 5.4%
(iv) Given CP = Rs. 1500, SP = Rs. 1500
Here clearly SP = CP.
So, neither profit nor loss.
4. Find the gain or loss percent, when:
(i) C.P. = Rs 4000 and gain = Rs 40.
(ii) S.P. = Rs 1272 and loss = Rs 328
(iii) S.P. = Rs 1820 and gain = Rs 420.
Solution:
(i) Given CP = Rs. 4000, gain = Rs. 40
Gain % = {(Gain/CP) x 100) %
= {(40/4000) x 100} %
= (0.01 x 100) %
Gain % = 1%
(ii) Given SP = Rs. 1272, loss = Rs. 328
Loss = CP – SP
Hence, CP = Loss+ SP
= Rs. 328 + Rs. 1272
= Rs. 1600
Loss % = {(Loss/CP) x 100} %
= {(328/1600) x 100%
Loss % = 20.5%
(iii) Given SP = Rs. 1820, gain = Rs. 420
Gain = SP – CP
CP = 1820 – 420
= Rs. 1400
Gain % = {(Gain/CP) x 100} %
= {(420/1400) x 100 %
Gain % = 30%
5. Find the gain or loss percent, when:
(i) C.P. = Rs 2300, Overhead expenses = Rs 300 and gain = Rs 260.
(ii) C.P. = Rs 3500, Overhead expenses = Rs 150 and loss = Rs 146
Solution:
(i) Given CP = Rs. 2300, overhead expenses = Rs. 300 and gain = Rs. 260
We know that Gain % = {(Gain/ (CP + overhead expenses)} x 100
= {260/ (2300 + 300} x 100
= {260/2600} x 100
Gain = 10%
(ii) Given CP = Rs. 3500, overhead expenses = Rs. 150 and loss = Rs. 146
We know that Loss % = {(Loss/ (CP + overhead expenses)} x 100
= {146/ (3500+ 150)} x 100
= {146/3650} x 100
= 14600/3650
Loss = 4%
6. A grain merchant sold 600 quintals of rice at a profit of 7%. If a quintal of rice cost
him Rs 250 and his total overhead charges for transportation, etc. were Rs 1000 find
his total profit and the selling price of 600 quintals of rice.
Solution:
Given Cost of 1 quintal of rice = Rs. 250
Cost of 600 quintals of rice = 600 x 250 = Rs. 150000
Overhead expenses = Rs. 1000
CP = Rs. (150000 + 1000) = Rs. 151000
Profit % = (Profit/CP) x 100
7 = (Profit /151000) x 100
Profit = 1510 x 7
Profit = Rs. 10570
Now SP = CP + profit
= Rs. (151000 + 10570)
SP = Rs. 161570
