Best answer 3 votes 3 votes Discount is given on M.P. Gain % = (S.P. - C.P.)/C.P * 100% 0.33 = (0.95 M.P. - C.P.)/C.P. 1.33 C.P. = 0.95 M.P. M.P. = 1.33/0.95 C.P. = 1.4 C.P. So, M.P. must be 40% above C.P. Arjun answered Sep 6, 2016 • selected Sep 7, 2016 by __ Arjun 8.6k points comment Share See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
