1 Find selling price (SP) if a profit of 5% is made on
(a) A cycle of Rs 700 with Rs 50 as overhead charges.
We know that cost price = Buying price + Overhead expenses
Cost price = Rs 700 + Rs 50 = Rs 750
Profit percent = 5%
We know,
Profit = Rs 37.5
Now, selling price (SP) = cost price + Profit =Rs 750 + Rs 37.5 = Rs 787.50
Therefore, the selling price (SP) is Rs 787.50
