The marked price of an article is 25% above the cost price of an article. The discount offered on online payment is 8%. What is the profit percentage if the shopkeeper sells two articles one with online payment and one with COD payment? Correct Answer 20%
Let cost price of an article be Rs.100
Marked price of an article = 100 × 125/100 = Rs.125
Selling price when discount is given = 125 × 92/100 = Rs.115
Selling price when no discount = Rs.125
The cost price of two articles = Rs.200
Selling price of two articles = 125 + 115 = Rs.240
Profit percentage = (240 – 200)/200 × 100
∴ Profit percentage = 20%
