Answers :
In 2017:
SP of pen drive in 2017 = p
(p – 3000/3000) * 100 = 50/3
p = 3500
Total CP of all the products in 2017 = 3500 + 4x + 3000 + 15x + 14000
= 20500 + 19x
Total SP of all the products in 2017 = 4500 + 2500 + 3500 + 9000 + 14500
= 34000
(34000 – 20500 – 19x)/(20500 + 19x) = 40/300
202500 – 285x = 41000 + 38x
323x = 161500
x = 500
CP of laptop in 2017 = 4 * 500 = Rs.2000
CP of Watch in 2017 = 15 * 500 = Rs.7500
In 2018:
Total profit in 2018 = Rs.6000
In 2019:
Total profit in 2019 = 6000 * 166.67/100 = Rs.10000
CP of all the products in 2019 = 35000
CP of mobile and watch in 2019 = 35000 – (2500 + 2500 + 15000)
= 35000 – 20000 = 15000
CP of mobile in 2019 = 2/5 * 15000 = 6000
CP of Watch in 2019 = 3/5 * 15000 = 9000
SP of all the products in 2019 = 35000 + 10000 = Rs.45000
1) Answer: A
Total cost price of all the products in 2018 = 39500 – 6000 = 33500
CP of mobile and laptop in 2018 = 33500 – 3000 – 10000 – 12500 = 8000
16y = 8000
y = 500
Difference = 11x – 5y = 6y = 6 * 500 = 3000
2) Answer: C
CP of mouse in 2019 = 16y - y = 15000
y = 1000
SP of mouse in 2019 = 16 * 1000 = 16000
Profit of mouse in 2019 = Rs.1000
SP of pen drive in 2019 = 5/1 * 1000 = 5000
SP of Mobile in 2019 = 45000 – 4000 – 5000 – 12500 – 16000 = 7500
Profit of mobile in 2019 = 7500 – 6000 = 1500
Profit of mobile in 2017 = 4500 – 3500 = 1000
Required percentage = 1000/1500 * 100 = 66.67%
3) Answer: C
Profit of laptop in 2017 = 2500 – 2000 = 500
Profit of laptop in 2019 = 4000 – 2500 = 1500
Profit of watch in 2017 = 9000 – 7500 = 1500
Profit of watch in 2019 = 12500 – 9000 = 3500
Average profit of laptop = (500 + 1500)/2 = 1000
Average profit of watch = (1500 + 3500)/2 = 2500
Difference = 2500 – 1000 = 1500
4) Answer: E
SP of mouse in 2019 = 15000
Total SP of all the products in 2019 = 45000
SP of Mobile and Pen drive in 2019 = 45000 – 4000 – 12500 – 15000 = 13500
Sp of Mobile in 2019 = 5/9 * 13500 = 7500
Difference = 15000 – 7500 = 7500
5) Answer: A
CP of mobile and laptop in 2018 = 32000 – 3000 – 10000 – 12500 = 6500
CP of mobile in 2018 = 9/13 * 6500= 4500
CP of laptop in 2018 = 4/13 * 6500 = 2000
Profit of mobile in 2018 = 6000 – 4500 = 1500
Profit of laptop in 2018 = 3500 – 2000 = 1500
Required ratio = 1500: 1500 = 1: 1
