DSSSB TGT CS Mock 02 – Question 044

Question:

A shopkeeper marks an article 40% above its cost price and allows a discount of 20% on the marked price. What is his net profit percentage?

एक दुकानदार एक वस्तु का मूल्य उसके क्रय मूल्य से 40% अधिक अंकित करता है और अंकित मूल्य पर 20% की छूट देता है। उसका शुद्ध लाभ प्रतिशत क्या है?

Options:

  • 12%
  • 15%
  • 16%
  • 20%
  • 12%
  • 15%
  • 16%
  • 20%

Correct Answer: a)

Explanation:

Let Cost Price (CP) = 100.
Marked Price (MP) = \(100 + 40 = 140\).
Selling Price (SP) = \(140 \times (1 – 0.20) = 140 \times 0.80 = 112\).
Profit = \(112 – 100 = 12\).
Profit Percentage = 12% (Option a).

माना क्रय मूल्य (CP) = 100.
अंकित मूल्य (MP) = 140.
विक्रय मूल्य (SP) = \(140 \times 0.80 = 112\).
लाभ % = \(112 – 100 = 12\%\) (विकल्प a)।
