A dealer buys an article marked at ₹ 25,000 with 20% and 5% off. He spends ₹ 1,000 for its
repair and sells it for ₹ 25,000. What is his gain or loss per cent?
-
- Loss of 25%
- Gain of 25%
- Gain of 10%
- Loss of 10%
Correct Option: B
| Equivalent discount = |  | 20 + 5 − |  | % = 24% | |
| 100 |
| ∴ CP of article = ₹ | | 25000 × | | = ₹ 19000 | |
| 100 |
Repairs cost = ₹ 1000
∴ Actual CP = 19000 +1000 = ₹ 20000
SP = ₹ 25000
Profit = 25000 –20000 = ₹ 5000
| ∴ Gain% = | × 100 = 25% | |
| 20000 |
