Question

Smt. Desai sold shares of face value Rs 100 when the market value was Rs 50 and received Rs 4988.20. She paid brokerage 0.2% and GST on brokerage 18%, then how many shares did she sell ?

Numerical

Solution

Total amount received = Rs 4988.20

MV of each share = Rs 50

Brokerage per share = 0.2% of Rs 50 =  \[\frac{0 . 2}{100} \times 50\]  = Rs 0.1

GST per share on brokerage = 18% of Rs 0.1 =  \[\frac{18}{100} \times 0 . 1\] = Rs 0.018
∴ Selling price of each share = MV − Brokerage − GST = Rs 50 − Rs 0.1 − Rs 0.018 = Rs 49.882
Number of shares sold =  \[\frac{\text{ Total amount received} }{\text{ Selling price of each share } } = \frac{4988 . 20}{49 . 882}\] = 100

Thus, the number of shares sold by Smt.Desai are 100.
