A dealer marks his goods 25 percent above the cost price and gives a discount of 8 percent. Find his profit percentage.

Answers (1)

Assume the cost price = CP

Marked price = 1.25 CP

Selling price (SP) = 1.25CP(1-0.08) = 1.15 CP

Profit percentage = (SP-CP)x100/CP 

                           = (1.15CP - CP)x100/CP

                          = 15 percentage
