  1. A shoe company sold 50 pairs of shoes on a day costing $ 189.50 each for $ 10,000. Then the profit obtained in $ is
    1. 522
    2. 525
    3. 573
    4. 612
Correct Option: B

Given , C.P. of 1 pairs of shoes = $ 189.50
∴ C.P. of 50 pairs of shoes = $ (50 × 189.50) = $ 9475
Selling Price of 50 pairs of shoes = $ 10000
Required Gain = Selling Price of 50 pairs of shoes - Cost Price of 50 pairs of shoes
∴ Required Gain = $ (10000 – 9475)= $ 525
