By selling a refrigerator for Rs.28,448, a shopkeeper makes a profit of 12%. If the profit is reduced to 8%, what is the new selling price of the refrigerator?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Rs.27,432

The selling price of a refrigerator = Rs 28448

Now the profit percentage is 8%

Then the new selling price = (28448/112) × 108

= Rs. 27432
