A Chocolate distributor having a gain of Rs. 12 per box of dark chocolates sold and incur a loss of Rs. 15 per box of white chocolates sold. The distributor sells 800 boxes of dark chocolates and 500 boxes of white chocolates in a month. What is his Gain or Loss? Correct Answer Rs. 2100

Given:

Gain per box of dark chocolate is + 12 and Loss per box of white chocolate is -15.

Calculation:

a) Total gain on the sale of 800 boxes of dark chocolate and 500 boxes of white chocolate

= Rs. {800 × ( + 12) + 500 × (-15)} = Rs. (9600 – 7500) = Rs. 2100

∴ there is a gain of Rs. 2100.
