• B. ₹3539
• C. ₹3840
• D. ₹3148

Answer 1

Answer:

C. ₹3840

Find cost price after discounts

Marked Price = ₹18,000

First discount 15%:
$18000 \times 0.85 = 15300$

Second discount 10%:
$15300 \times 0.90 = 13770$

So, Cost Price = ₹13,770

Add transportation cost

$13770 + 830 = 14600$

So, total cost price = ₹14,600

Selling price

$SP = ₹18,440$
Profit

$18440 - 14600 = 3840$

Final Answer:

Profit = ₹3,840
