Discounts Markup Interest
1. Problem 1: Complete the tables by finding missing values in each.
**Table 1: Discounts and Sale Prices**
Given: Selling Price (SP), Rate of Discount (r), Discount (D), Sale Price (S). The relation is:
$$ D = SP \times r $$
$$ S = SP - D $$
(1) For SP=500, r=20% = 0.20:
$$ D = 500 \times 0.20 = 100 $$
$$ S = 500 - 100 = 400 $$
(2) For SP=950, r=35% = 0.35:
$$ D = 950 \times 0.35 = 332.50 $$
$$ S = 950 - 332.50 = 617.50 $$
(3) Given r=25% = 0.25 and D=250:
$$ SP = \frac{D}{r} = \frac{250}{0.25} = 1000 $$
$$ S = SP - D = 1000 - 250 = 750 $$
(4) Given r=12% = 0.12 and D=574.20:
$$ SP = \frac{574.20}{0.12} = 4785 $$
$$ S = SP - D = 4785 - 574.20 = 4210.80 $$
(5) Given SP=9455 and D=3782:
$$ r = \frac{D}{SP} = \frac{3782}{9455} \approx 0.4 = 40\% $$
$$ S = SP - D = 9455 - 3782 = 5673 $$
**Table 2: Mark-up and Selling Prices**
Relation:
$$ Mark\text{-}up\ Price = Original\ Price \times Mark\text{-}up\ Rate $$
$$ Selling\ Price = Original\ Price + Mark\text{-}up\ Price $$
(1) Given OP=300, r=10% =0.10:
$$ Mark\text{-}up\ Price = 300 \times 0.10 = 30 $$
$$ Selling\ Price = 300 + 30 = 330 $$
(2) OP=1055, r=12% = 0.12:
$$ Mark\text{-}up\ Price = 1055 \times 0.12 = 126.60 $$
$$ Selling\ Price = 1055 + 126.60 = 1181.60 $$
(3) Given r=25% = 0.25, Mark-up Price=275:
$$ Original\ Price = \frac{275}{0.25} = 1100 $$
$$ Selling\ Price = 1100 + 275 = 1375 $$
(4) Given r=18% = 0.18, Mark-up Price=1713.60:
$$ Original\ Price = \frac{1713.60}{0.18} = 9520 $$
$$ Selling\ Price = 9520 + 1713.60 = 11233.60 $$
(5) Given OP=11563, Mark-up Price=1734.45:
$$ Mark\text{-}up\ Rate = \frac{1734.45}{11563} \approx 0.15 = 15\% $$
$$ Selling\ Price = 11563 + 1734.45 = 13297.45 $$
**Table 3: Commission**
Relation:
$$ Commission = Total\ Sales \times Rate $$
(1) TS=5000, r=5% = 0.05:
$$ Commission = 5000 \times 0.05 = 250 $$
(2) TS=12560, r=8% = 0.08:
$$ Commission = 12560 \times 0.08 = 1004.80 $$
(3) Given r=14% = 0.14, Commission=2864.12:
$$ Total\ Sales = \frac{2864.12}{0.14} = 20458 $$
(4) Given r=15% = 0.15, Commission=8350.50:
$$ Total\ Sales = \frac{8350.50}{0.15} = 55670 $$
(5) Given TS=112545, Commission=28136.25:
$$ Rate = \frac{28136.25}{112545} = 0.25 = 25\% $$
**Table 4: Simple Interest (SI)**
Formula:
$$ SI = P \times r \times t $$
where $P$=Principal, $r$=rate per year in decimal, $t$=time in years.
Note: Convert months to years where needed.
(1) P=8000, r=1% = 0.01, t=1year:
$$ SI=8000 \times 0.01 \times 1 = 80 $$
(2) P=12000, r=2% = 0.02, t=2 years:
$$ SI=12000 \times 0.02 \times 2 = 480 $$
(3) P=15500, r=5% = 0.05, t=18 months = 1.5 years:
$$ SI=15500 \times 0.05 \times 1.5 = 1162.50 $$
(4) P=21680, r=0.5% = 0.005, t=5 years:
$$ SI=21680 \times 0.005 \times 5 = 542 $$
(5) P=24742, r=1.25% = 0.0125, t=9 months = 0.75 years:
$$ SI=24742 \times 0.0125 \times 0.75 = 232.72 $$
(6) Given P=4200, t=4 years, SI=252:
$$ r = \frac{SI}{P \times t} = \frac{252}{4200 \times 4} = 0.015 = 1.5\% $$
(7) Given t=6 months=0.5 years, SI=73.70:
Assuming $P$ and $r$ unknown, insufficient data to compute missing values.
(8) P=6700, r=4% = 0.04, t=0.25 year:
$$ SI=6700 \times 0.04 \times 0.25 = 67 $$
The value 120 given suggests a misalignment; possibly $P$ or $t$ differs.
(9) Given r=12% = 0.12, t=3.5 years, SI=15000:
$$ P = \frac{SI}{r \times t} = \frac{15000}{0.12 \times 3.5} = 35714.29 $$
(10) Given r=10% = 0.10, SI=3742.50:
Assuming missing $P$ and $t$, insufficient data to solve.
(11) P=49900, no other data to calculate missing info.
