    A wholesalers sold 400 quintals of sugar at a profit of 6 %. If a quintal of sugar cost him Rs 240 and his total overhead charges for transportation, etc., were Rs 800, find his total profit and the selling price sugar of 400 quintals of sugar.

    A)  102608                        

    B)  102616

    C)  102556            

    D)       102216

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Cost of one quintal of sugar = Rs 240 Therefore, cost of 400 quintals of sugar = Rs \[(240\times 400)=\]  Rs \[96,000\] Overhead charges = Rs \[8,00.\] Hence, Cost price (C.P.) = Rs \[(96,000+800)\] = Rs  \[96,800\] Profit \[=6%\]. Net Profit \[=6%\] of Rs \[96,800\] = Rs \[6/100\times 96,800\] = Rs \[(6\times 96,800)/100\] = Rs \[580800/100\] = Rs 5808. Selling price of sugar (S.P.) = Cost price of sugar (C.P.) + Profit = Rs \[(96,800+5808)=\]  Rs 102608 Thus, total profit is Rs 5,808 and the selling price sugar is Rs 1,02,608
