    Solution

    ATQ, we can say that Let CP of Table Fan = Rs.'a' ,  Then CP of wall Fan = 1500 Rs.  MP of Table = 1.2a Rs.  MP of Wall fan = 1.25 × 1500 = 1875 Rs.  SP of wall fan = 1875 – 125 = 1750 Rs. ,  Profit = 1750 – 1500 = 250 Rs.  SP of Table = a + 250 Rs.  I.   a = 1000, SP of Table = 1000 + 250 = 1250 Rs.  II   a = 1600, SP of Table = 1600 + 250 = 1850 Rs.  III  a = 1300, SP of Table = 1300 + 250 = 1550 Rs.  IV  a = 1400, SP of Table = 1400 + 250 = 1650 Rs.
