Question

When you plan to buy a shirt, Shop A offers a discount of Rupees 200 on MRP Rupees 1000 and Shop B offers 15% discount on the same MRP. Where would you buy?

• A. Shop A
• B. Shop B
• C. Both A & B
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Shop A

Shop A:
Marked price= Rupees 1000
Discount= Rupees 200
Selling Price = Marked Price – Discount
= 1000-200
= Rupees 800
Shop B:
Marked price= Rupees 1000
Discount % = 15%
$\text{Discount}=\frac{\text{(Discount}\times \text{Marked price)}}{100}$
$=\frac{(15\times 1000)}{100}$
= Rupees 150
Selling Price = Marked Price – Discount
= 1000-150
= Rupees 850
If we compare Selling Price of both shop then best deal is given by shop A.
