Question 55

Shubham bought a book from Meesho at ₹500. Meesho also charged an additional ₹25 for packaging and ₹50 for delivering the book. For what amount should Shubham sell his book to make a profit of 16%?

Solution

Shubham bought a book from Meesho at ₹500. Meesho also charged an additional ₹25 for packaging and ₹50 for delivering the book.

Total cost of book = ₹500+₹25+₹50 = ₹575

When a profit of 16% should be obtained, then selling price = ₹575 of (100+16)%

= ₹575 of 116%

= $$575\times\frac{116}{100}$$

= ₹667
