Q.
A company produced 1500 units at a total cost of ₹1,20,000. It donated 300 units to an NGO. For the rest, it announced a 15% discount on the market price of ₹110 per unit. It also offered 3 units free for every 10 units purchased. If all 1500 units were distributed, what is the overall gain or loss percentage?
A
a) 25% loss
B
b) 15% profit
C
c) 28.08% loss
D
d) 36.6% profit
Correct Answer: Option C)
Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation:
Remaining units = 1200. Offer: buy 10, get 3 free (total 13 units distributed). Sold units = 1200 * (10 / 13) = 12000 / 13 = 923 units. S.P. per unit = 110 * 0.85 = ₹93.5. Total Revenue = (12000/13) * 93.5 = ₹86,307. Cost Price = ₹1,20,000. Loss = 1,20,000 – 86,307 = 33,693. Loss % = (33693 / 120000) * 100 = 28.08%.
