A shopkeeper marks his goods 50% more than the cost price and allows a discount of 25%. His profit or loss percentage is :
-
- 37.5%
- 25.5%
- 12.5%
- 25%
Correct Option: C
Let C.P. of article be Rs. 100.
∴ Marked price = Rs. 150
discount = 25%
| S.P. of article = Rs. |  |  | = Rs. 112.5 | |
| 100 |
∴ Profit = S.P. of article - C.P. of article = Rs. (112.5 – 100) = Rs. 12.5
| ∴ Profit percent = | × 100 | |
| C.P. |
| Profit percent = | × 100 = 12.5% | |
| 100 |
