    Solution

    Total Units Sold: Electronics = 200 + 220 + 180 + 240 + 260 + 300 = 1,400 Clothing = 150 + 170 + 160 + 190 + 200 + 250 = 1,120 Furniture = 100 + 120 + 140 + 110 + 130 + 140 = 740 Total Cost Price for each product: Electronics = 1,400 × 1,000 = ₹1,400,000 Clothing = 1,120 × 400 = ₹448,000 Furniture = 740 × 2,000 = ₹1,480,000 Total Selling Price for each product: Electronics = 1,400 × 1,500 = ₹2,100,000 Clothing = 1,120 × 600 = ₹672,000 Furniture = 740 × 3,000 = ₹2,220,000 Total CP = 1,400,000 + 448,000 + 1,480,000 = ₹3,328,000 Total SP = 2,100,000 + 672,000 + 2,220,000 = ₹4,992,000 Overall Profit = Total SP - Total CP = 4,992,000 - 3,328,000 = ₹1,664,000
