Answer:

Percentage profit = 11.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

  • Vat = 13% = 13/100 = 0.13
  • Cost price = 10,000
  • Selling price = Rs 12430

To calculate the profit percentage on the article;

First of all, we would determine the value-added (vat) tax levy;

Vat levy = 0.13 * 10000

Vat levy = Rs. 1300

Profit = selling price - cost price

Profit = 12430 - 10000

Profit = 2430

Profit after vat;

Profit after vat = Profit - Vat levy

Profit after vat = 2430 - 1300

Profit after vat = 1130

Next, we would calculate the profit percentage on the article;

[tex] Percentage \; profit = \frac {Profit \; after \; vat}{Cost \; price} * 100 [/tex]

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

[tex] Percentage \; profit = \frac {1130}{10000} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage \; profit = \frac {113000}{10000} [/tex]

Percentage profit = 11.3%
