Q:

Mr. X sold two properties P1 and P2 for Rs 1,00,000 each. He sold property P1 for 20% less than what he paid for it. What is the percentage of profit of property P2, so that he is not in gain or loss on the sale of two properties?

A) 33.33% B) 29.97%
C) 25% D) 22.22%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 33.33%

Explanation:

Let 'A' be the cost price of property P1.

Then from the given data, the selling price of P1 = Rs. 1,00,000

He got 20% loss on selling P1

A - 20A100 = 100000A = 1,25,000

Therefore, the amount he lossed on selling P1 = 25,000

As ge he got no loss or gain on sale of P1 and P2, the gain on selling P2 = 25,000

But the selling price of P2 = 1,00,000 => Cost price of P2 = 75,000

 

Hence, the profit percentage on P2 = GainCPx 100 = 2500075000x100 = 1003= 33.33%

A) 22% B) 27%
C) 20% D) 18%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 20%

Profit when article sold at Rs. 3265 = 3265 - 2720 = 545

Q:

Munna and Chinna are partners in a firm out of which Munna is sleeping partner and Chinna is working partner. Munna invests Rs. 1,40,000 and Chinna invests Rs. 80,000. Chinna receives 14.5% of profit for managing the business and the rest is shared between both in ratio of their investments. Munna's share in the profit of Rs. 19600 is ?

A) Rs. 9580.25 B) Rs. 10600
C) Rs. 10664.15 D) Rs. 11060.48
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 10664.15

Explanation:

Profit received by Chinna as working partner = 14.5% of Rs. 19600

= 14.5x19600/100 = Rs. 2842

Balance in profit = 19600-2842 = Rs. 16758

Ratio of investment of Chinna & Munna = 80,000 : 1,40,000 = 4 : 7

Hence share of Chinna in investment = 4x16758/100 = Rs. 6093.85

Therefore, Share of Munna = 19600 - 2842 - 6093.85 = Rs. 10664.15
