Mrs Kulkarni invests Rs 1, 31,040 in buying Rs 100 shares at a discount of 9%. She sells shares worth Rs.72,000 at a premium of 10% and the rest at a discount of 5%. Find her total gain or loss on the whole.
उत्तर
Investment = Rs 131040
N.V of 1 share = Rs 100
Discount = 9% of Rs 100 = Rs 9
∴ M.V of share = Rs100 - Rs 9 = Rs 91
∴ Number of shares purchased = `"Investment"/"M.V of share" = 131040/91 = 1440`
Number of shares worth Rs 72000 = 72000/100 = 720
:. Mrs Kulkarni sells 720 shares at a premium of 10%
M.V of 1 share = Rs 100 + Rs 10 = Rs 110
∴ Selling price of 720 shars = 720 x Rs110 = Rs 79200
Number of remaining shares = 1440- 720 = 720
She sells 720 shares at a discount of 5%
M.V. of 1 share = Rs 100 - Rs 5 = Rs 95
∴ Selling price of 720 shares = 720 x Rs 95 = Rs 68400
∴ Total selling price = Rs (79200 +68400) = Rs 147600
∴ Total gain = Total selling price - Total investment
= Rs 147600 - 131040
= Rs 16560
