A) A shopkeeper marked the price of an article a certain percent above the cost price and he allowed 16% discount to make 5% profit. If a customer paid Rs 9,492 with 13%
VAT to buy the article, by what percent is the marked price above the cost price of the
article?

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

customer paid = 9492

less vat (13%) .net =8400

% on cost   (2000/ 8000) X100 =25%
