The correct Answer is:
A
माना कि वस्तु की लागत मूल्य ₹ 100 थी, तथा सामान की संख्या भी 100 थी।
`therefore` अंकित मूल्य = ₹ 130
कुल क्रयमूल्य = ₹ 10000,
`therefore ` कुल विक्रयमूल्य `= 50 xx 130 + 25 xx (130 xx 85)/100 + 25 xx (130 xx 70)/100`
`6500 + 2762.50+2275 = ₹ 11537.5`
`% ` लाभ = `(1537.5)/(10000) xx 100`
`= 15.375 = 15 3/8 % `
