Solution

The correct option is B ₹ 4750
Given: S.P of the article = ₹7250
Profit on the sale = ₹250
$∴$ The total C.P of the article = S.P - Profit
= 7250 - 250
= ₹7000
Actual C.P of the article = Total C.P - ( transportation charge + installation charge + cost of accessories)
= 7000 - ( 400 + 650 + 1200)
= 7000 - 2250 = ₹ 4750
