A shop is sold at 30% profit, the amount of brokerage at the rate of `3/4`% amounts to
₹ 73,125. Find cost of the shop

बेरीज

उत्तर

It is given that,

Brokerage is ₹ 73,125 and brokerage rate is `3/4`%

Let selling price be x.

Brokerage = Selling price of shop × Brokerage rate

∴ `73,125 = "x" xx 3/4`%

∴ `73,125 = "x" xx 0.75/100` %

∴ x = `(73,125 xx 100)/0.75`

∴ x = 97,50,000

∴ Selling price for the shop is 97,50,000.

It is mentioned that shop is sold at 30% profit.

If purchase price is ₹ 100, then selling price is ₹ 130.

For selling price ₹ 97,50,000, cost price will be 100 → 130

? → 97,50,000

∴ Cost price = `(97,50,000 xx 100)/130` = 75,00,000

∴ Cost of the shop is ₹ 75,00,000.

Mr. Pavan is paid a fixed weekly salary plus commission based on percentage of sales made by him. If on the sale of ₹68,000 and ₹73,000 in two successive weeks, he received in all ₹9880 and ₹10, 180. Complete the following activity to find his weekly salary and the rate of commission paid to him.

Solution: Income of Mr. Pavan = Weekly salary + Commission on sales

Salary + Commission on ₹68,000 = ₹9880      ... (1)

Salary+ Commission on ₹73,000 = ₹10,180     ... (2)

Subtracting (1) from (2), we get

Commission on ₹5000 = ₹ `square`

∴ the rate of commission = `square/5000 xx 100` = 6%

Commission on ₹68,000 at 6% = ₹`68000 xx6/100 = square`

From (1) and (3), we get Salary = ₹(9880 - 4080) = `square`

Hence, fixed weekly salary is ₹5800 and the rate of commission is 6%.
