Correct option is D
Given:
CP₁ (pen 1) = ₹444; intended profit = 75%, then discount = 14% on that price
CP₂ (pen 2) = ₹356; profit = 48%
Formula Used:
SP=CP×(1+p)×(1−d)
Profit = SP - CP
Solution:
Pen 1:
Effective profit rate = (1+0.75)(1−0.14)−1=1.75×0.86−1=0.505=50.5%
SP1=444×1.75×0.86=₹668.22
Profit1=668.22−444=₹224.22
Pen 2:
SP2=356×1.48=₹526.88
Profit2=526.88−356=₹170.88
Total Profit =224.22 + 170.88 = ₹395.10
