Statement III: The Marked price of the TV was Rs. 22,300 Correct Answer None of these
From statement I
S. P = 19,350, Profit or Gain = 26.5%
⇒ C.P = (100/126.5) × 19350 = 15296 (approx.)
From statement II
M.P = 132% of C.P = (132/100) × 15296 = 20190 (approx.)
From statements I and II,
Discount = MP - SP = 20190 – 19350 = Rs. 840
⇒ Discount % = (840/20190) × 100 = 4.16%
Statements I and II can give the answer
Statements II and III cannot give the answer because we want profit percentage with Discount and Profit without discount also
From statement III,
M. P = Rs. 22,300
I and III give the answer
∴ I and II together or I and III together give the answer
