MP × (100 - d)% = SP = CP + P (CP + 240) × 4/5 = CP + 96 ⇒ CP/5 = 48 × 4 - 96 = 48 × 2 ⇒ CP = Rs 480 Given: The cost price of an article is increased by Rs. 240 Discount(%) given on the marked price of the article = 20% Profit on selling the article after giving discount = Rs. 96 Formula used: Selling price = Discount% × (Marked price) Profit = (Selling price – Cost price) Calculations: Let the cost price be Rs. 100x ⇒ Marked price = Rs. (100x + 240) On 20% discount, ⇒ Selling price = 80% × (100x + 240) ⇒ (80x + 192) Profit = (Selling price – Cost price) ⇒ 96 = (80x + 192) – (100x) ⇒ 96 = (192 – 20x) ⇒ x = (96/20) ⇒ 100x = 100 × (96/20) ⇒ 480 ∴ The cost price of the article is Rs. 480.
