A merchant marked the price of an article by increasing its production cost by 80%. Now he allows discount of Rs. 160 and gets a profit of Rs. 200 after selling it. The production cost is
Rs. 320
Rs. 360
Rs. 575
Rs. 440
Rs. 580
Let's break down the statements step-by-step:
- Let the production cost = Rs. x
- Marked Price = x + 80% of x = 1.8x
- Let Selling Price after discount = S
- Discount allowed = Rs. 160
So, S = Marked Price - 160 = 1.8x - 160
- Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price = Rs. 200
Thus, S - x = 200 ? S = x + 200
- Using both S values: 1.8x - 160 = x + 200
? 1.8x - x = 200 + 160
? 0.8x = 360
? x = 360/0.8 = Rs. 450
Option breakdown:
- Option 1: Rs. 320 ?
- Option 2: Rs. 360 ?
- Option 3: Rs. 575 ?
- Option 4: Rs. 440 ?
- Option 5: Rs. 580 ?
- Correct answer: None of the provided options exactly match Rs. 450
