Shri Ramlal purchased a TV set for Rs. 12,500 and spent Rs. 300 on transportation and Rs. 800 on installation. At what price should he sell…

Solution
Cost price of TV = Rs. 12,500
Amount spent on transportation = Rs. 300 and installation = Rs. 800
Net spent = Rs. (12500 + 300 + 800) = Rs. 13,600
Let selling price = $Rs.x$
Profit % = $\frac{x-13600}{13600} \times 100=15$
=> $x-13600=15 \times 136$
=> $x=2040+13600$
=> $x=Rs.$ $15,640$
=> Ans - (E)
