Choose your answer
| LIST-I (Cost Price = C.P. and Selling Price = S.P.) | LIST-II (in Rs) |
|---|---|
| A. If C.P. = Rs 600, Profit = 25%, then S.P. = ? | I. 1080 |
| B. S.P. = Rs 1680, Loss = 20%, then C.P. = ? | II. 750 |
| C. Marked Price = Rs 1500, successive discounts are 20% & 10%, then S.P. = ? | III. 1200 |
| D. Difference between C.P. and S.P. = Rs 240, Profit = 20%, then C.P. = ? | IV. 2100 |
Question: Match List I with List II:
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
For A, SP (II). For B, a 20% loss means SP is 80% of CP, so CP (IV). For C, (I), and for D the difference of 240 is the 20% profit, so CP (III), giving A–II, B–IV, C–I, D–III. Treating the successive discounts as a single 30% discount would wrongly give 1050.
