Question: A manufacturer sells three products i.e. A, B and C. Product A costs 200 and sells for 250. Product B costs 150 and sells for 180. Product C costs 100 and sells for 115. On which product, he has maximum percentage of profit?

Solution:
Product A’s percentage of profit = {(250 - 200)/200} × 100 = 25%
Product B’s percentage of profit = {(180 - 150)/150} × 100 = 20%
Product C’s percentage of profit = {(115 - 100)/100} × 100 = 15%

So, only product A has the highest profit margin.

Question: A fruit seller buys apples at a rate of 2 apples for a Taka and sells them at a rate of 5 apples for 3 Taka. What is her profit margin (based on cost price)?

Solution:
২টি আপেলের ক্রয়মূল্য = ১ টাকা 
১টি আপেলের ক্রয়মূল্য = ১/২  টাকা 

Then,
৫টি আপেলের বিক্রয়মূল্য  = ৩ টাকা 
১টি আপেলের বিক্রয়মূল্য  = ৩/৫  টাকা 
সুতরাং, লাভ  =৩/৫ - ১/২  = ১/১০ টাকা 

অতএব শতকরা লাভ = {(১/১০)/(১/২)} × ১০০ = ২০%

A profit of 25% could have been made if an item was sold for Tk.750. It was sold for a loss of 5% instead. What is the actual selling price?
  1. ক) Tk. 720
  2. খ) Tk. 570
  3. গ) Tk. 450
  4. ঘ) Tk. 620
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A profit of 25% could have been made if an item was sold for Tk.750. It was sold for a loss of 5% instead. What is the actual selling price?
Solution:
Let be assume cost price of the item is 100x
⇒ 125x = 750
⇒ x = 6

⇒ Now, the actual selling price of the item was 5% less the cost price of the items
⇒ The actual selling price of item = 100x - 5x = 95x
⇒ 95 × 6 = 570

∴ The required result will be 570.

What is the net discount for successive discounts of 20% and 30%?
  1. ক) 44%
  2. খ) 36%
  3. গ) 48%
  4. ঘ) 24%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: What is the net discount for successive discounts of 20% and 30%?
Solution: 
ধরি, লিখিত মূল্য  ‘x’.

20% ছাড়ের পর, 
⇒ বিক্রয়মূল্য  = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

30% ছাড়ের পর,
⇒ বিক্রয়মূল্য = 0.8x - 0.8 × 0.3x = 0.56x

∴ মোট ছাড় = [(x - 0.56x)/x] × 100 = 44%

In a certain store, the profit is 320% of the cost, If the cost increase by 25% but the selling price remains constant, approximately what percentage of the selling price is the profit?
  1. ক) 60%
  2. খ) 70%
  3. গ) 50%
  4. ঘ) 30%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: In a certain store, the profit is 320% of the cost, If the cost increase by 25% but the selling price remains constant, approximately what percentage of the selling price is the profit?
Solution: 
Let the cost price be 100x 
so, Profit = 320% of 100x = 320x
then, selling price = 100x + 320x = 420x

Now, cost price increased by 25% 
New, Cost price = 125x 
New Profit = 420x - 125x = 295x 

Profit percent on selling price = (295x/420x) × 100 = 70% 

∴ The required percentage is 70%

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A canvas costs Tk. 500 and the marked price is printed as Tk. 800. What is the profit % for the seller if he sells and offers a discount of 10% on the marked price?
Solution: 
After allowing a discount of 10% we get,
⇒ 90% of 800
⇒ (90 / 100) × 800
⇒ 720

∴ S.P = Tk. 720

Profit = S.P - C.P
⇒ 720 - 500
⇒ 220

Profit% = (Profit / C.P) × 100
⇒ (220 / 500) × 100
⇒ 44%

The profit% for the seller is 44%.

  3. গ) 8%
  4. ঘ) 15%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: Find the rate of discount when the marked price is Tk.1880 and selling price is Tk. 1598.

Solution: 
বইয়ের লিখিত মূল্য, x = Tk. 1880
বইয়ের বিক্রয় মূল্য, y = Tk. 1598

Formula:
If Tk. x be MP of the article and Tk. y be S.P of the article, then

ছাড় = (x - y)
ছাড় % = (Discount/MP) × 100

ছাড় = 1880 - 1598 = Tk. 282
∴ ছাড়ের শতাংশ = (282/1880) × 100 = 15%

The numerical value of the profit % is equal to the cost price of a book on selling it at Tk. 96. So, how much profit (in Tk.) is there on selling it?
  1. ক) 24
  2. খ) 52
  3. গ) 36
  4. ঘ) None of above
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: The numerical value of the profit % is equal to the cost price of a book on selling it at Tk. 96. So, how much profit (in Tk.) is there on selling it?
Solution: 
Let the CP of the book be = Tk. x
So, the profit will be x%.
SP of the book = Tk. 96

Hence, 
⇒ x = {(96 - x)/x} × 100
⇒ x2 + 100x - 9600 = 0
⇒ x2 + 160x - 60x - 9600 = 0
⇒ x(x + 160) - 60(x + 160) = 0
⇒ x = 60, -160

So, CP of a book = Tk. 60
⇒ Profit = Tk. 96 - Tk. 60 
⇒ Profit = Tk.36

Hence, the correct answer is "36".

ব্যাখ্যা
Question : Rimi bought a mobile phone at a discount of 20%. Had the discount received was 25%, she would have saved Tk 2,000 more. How much did she pay (in Tk) for the mobile phone?
Solution: 
Let the actual price of the phone be 100x

Cost price of Rimi = 100x × (100 - 20)%
⇒ 100x × 80%
⇒ 80x

If 25% discount is given then,
Cost price of Rimi = 100x × (100 - 25)%
⇒ 75x

According to the question,
80x - 75x = 2000
⇒ 5x = 2000
⇒ x = 400

So, actual cost price of Rimi = 80 × 400
⇒ 32000

∴ She paid 32000 (in Tk) for the mobile phone.

Solution:
ধরি,
1টি আমের পূর্বমূল্য = x টাকা 
20% কমে 
1টি আমের বর্তমানমূল্য = x - x এর 20%
                                     = x - 20x /100
                                      = 80x/100
                                      = 0.8x

প্রশ্নমতে,
(12/0.8x) - (12/x) = 2 
(15/x) - (12/x)  = 2
(15 - 12)/x = 2
3/x = 2
2x = 3
x = 3/2 
x = 1.5 

1টি আমের বর্তমানমূল্য = 1.5 × 0.8 = 1.2 টাকা
100 টি আমের বর্তমানমূল্য = 1.2 × 100 টাকা
                                        = 120 টাকা

Question:  Man could not decide between discount of 30% or two successive discounts of 25% and 5%, both given on a shopping of Tk. 2,000. What is the difference between both the discounts?
Solution: 
বাজার খরচ = Tk. 2000

১ম শর্তমতে∶
শতকরা ছাড় = 30%
ছাড়  = 30% of 2000 = 30/100 × 2000 = Tk. 600

২য় শর্তমতে ∶
১ম শতাংশ ছাড় = 25%
১ম ছাড় = 25% of 2000 = 25/100 × 2000 = Tk. 500

প্রথম ছাড়ের পর বাজার খরচ = 2000 – 500 = Tk. 1500

২য় শতাংশ ছাড় = 5%
২য় ছাড় = 5/100 × 1500 = Tk. 75

সম্পূর্ণ ছাড় = 500 + 75 = Tk. 575

∴ উভয় শর্তে ছাড়  = 600 – 575 = Tk.25
