    E New Profit ₹410,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    New Selling Price for Product B = 350 + (15% of 350) = 350 + 52.5 = ₹402.5 New Selling Price for Product C = 500 + (15% of 500) = 500 + 75 = ₹575 New Total Selling Price for Products B and C: Product B: 400 × 402.5 = ₹161,000 Product C: 860 × 575 = ₹494,500 Total SP after increase: = 183,000 (Product A) + 161,000 (Product B) + 494,500 (Product C) = ₹838,500 Total Profit = Total SP - Total CP = 838,500 - 480,000 = ₹358,500
