A.

606

B.

594

C.

582

D.

Correct option is B

Given:

Cost Price (CP) = Rs. 540

Profit = 10%

Formula Used:

SP = CP×(1+Profit %100) \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Profit \%}}{100}\right)​​

Solution:

SP = 540×(1+10100) 540 \times \left(1 + \frac{10}{100}\right)​​

540×1.10540 \times 1.10​​

= Rs. 594
