A shopkeeper buys an article for Rs 500 and sells it for Rs 600. What is his profit percentage?
Show Solution+
Answer: 20%
Step 1: Find the profit: [Profit = SP - CP = 600 - 500 = Rs 100]

Show Solution+
Answer: Rs 1800
Step 1: Input tax (GST paid on purchase): [= 12% of 50000 = Rs 6000]
Step 2: Output tax (GST collected on sale): [= 12% of 65000 = Rs 7800]
Step 3: Tax paid to government: [= Output tax - Input tax = 7800 - 6000 = Rs 1800]

Answer: Rs 59136
Step 1: Wholesaler's SP: [= 40000 + 20% of 40000 = Rs 48000]
Step 2: Retailer's SP: [= 48000 + 10% of 48000 = Rs 52800]
Step 3: GST on consumer's purchase: [= 12% of 52800 = Rs 6336]
Step 4: Price paid by consumer: [= 52800 + 6336 = Rs 59136]
