What was the profit in percentage that Khemchand made (after GST) in the entire transaction? Correct Answer 100% profit
Cost price of plot and leveling of land = Rs. (30 + 1) lakh = 31 lakh
Cost of 4 flats = Rs. 85 lakh
Cost of painting, furnishing, and advertising = 4 × 1.25 = 5 lakh
Total expenses = 31 + 85 + 5 = Rs. 121 lakhs
Selling price of all the flats = Rs. 60 lakh × 4 = Rs. 240 lakh
Total GST = 4 × 50,000 = Rs. 2 lakh
Total SP = 240 + 2 = 242 lakhs
Profit percent = × 100 = 100%
