Capgemini Profit & Loss Questions and Answers Quiz-1

Let Cost Price be x and selling price be y
Then given that the cost price of 10 dairy milk shots is equal to the selling price
of 9 dairy milk shots
That means 10x=9y
Y= 10x/9
Profit percent = (( selling price – cost price )/cost price ) * 100
= 100/9 %

CP = [100 / (100 – Loss %)] * SP

Therefore, the cost price of the sanitizer = (100/93)*465 = Rs. 500

Cp of first flour=30*36=1080
Cp of secomd kind flour=26*20=520
Total cp=1080+520=1600
Total amt of flour=30+26=56kg
Total sp of flour =30*56=1680
Profit =1680-1600 =80 ----- (this is answer)
Profit %=80 /1600 *100 =5%

C.P. of 6 Alpen Liebe Gold = Re. 1

S.P. of 6 Alpen Liebe Gold = 120% of Re. 1 = Rs. 6/5

For Rs. 6/5, , Alpen Liebe Gold sold = 6.

For Re. 1, Alpen Liebe Gold sold = (6* 6/5 ) = 5

The retail price of the toothpaste is 40.

The cost price of tooth brush plus toothpaste is :

125/100 × 40 = 50

This is inclusive of the cost of the toothbrush in that the cost of the toothbrush has lowered the cost of the toothpaste since it is given free.

It implies that the cost price of the toothpaste should be 10 more than the cost price when the toothbrush is not given free with the toothpaste.

The actual cost of the toothpaste is :

50 + 10 = 60

Rs 60

SP of mobile!Rs.9900
G% on one mobile=10%
CP of one mobile=
(p*100/100+g)
=9900*100/100+10
=990000/110
=Rs.9000
CP of another mobile=
=9900*100/100-10
=990000/90

=Rs.11000
SP of both mobiles=9900+9900=Rs.19800
CP of both mobiles =9000+11000=Rs.20000
Since CP>SP
Loss =CP-SP
=20000-19800
Loss=Rs.200

Let x be the marked price.

Find the discounted price in term of x:

205 discount = 20% of x = 0.2x

Price after discount = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Find the sales tax (on marked price):

Sales Tax = 5% of x = 0.05x

Find the service tax (on discounted price):

Service Tax = 5% of 0.8x = 0.05(0.8x) = 0.04x

Solve x:

Customer paid Rs2670

0.8x + 0.05x + 0.04x = 2670

0.89x = 2670

x = 2670 ÷ 0.89

x = Rs 3000

Answer: The marked price is Rs 3000

 

Let CP be x rupee
profit on CP of 5 % =315
x +5%of x = 315
( on solving......)
x = 300
Now if article is sold for 275 then,
actual loss= 300-275= 25
loss percent = 25 x 100/300
=8.33%

33% loss
Let’s say cost price is x
Then selling price = (2/3)* x
Profit or loss % =( ( selling price – cost price )/ Cost price ) * 100

= 33% loss
