Answers :

1.5;Cost price of V = Rs.50

Transportation cost = Rs.30

Total cost price = 50+30=Rs.80

Profit = 4%

Selling price = 80*104/100 = Rs.83.2

2.2; Selling price of X = (Cost price + Cost on transportation + Profit) = 250+20+5=275

Cost price of W =Selling price + Loss

= 100+10=Rs.110

Required  % = 275*100/110%

=250%

3.4; Loss on Y = Cost price of Y - selling price of Y

= 400*100/96-400 =416.66-400 = Rs.16.66

Loss on W = Rs.10

Reqd ratio = 16.66:10=833:500

4.3; Selling price of Z = Cost price of Z+Cost on transportation + Profit

=400+40+440*6/100= Rs.466.4

Selling price of X =Rs.275

Difference =466.4-275=Rs.191.4

5.3; Selling price of V = (Cost price + Cost of Transportation)*95/100=

(50+30) *95/100 = Rs.76

Selling price of Z = Rs.466.4

Reqd% = (466.4-76)*100/466.4

=83.7%
