Show Answer

Correct Answer: (2)

Solution: (2)

The price of each computer of type-P $=26,400 \times\left(\frac{100}{110}\right)$ $=$ Rs. 24,000

Total cost of 5 computers $=24,000 \times 5=$ Rs. $1,20,000$

After discount Price $=1,20,000 \times 95 \%$ $=$ Rs. $1,14,000$

After sales tax S.P. $=1,14,000 \times 108 \%$ $=$ Rs. $1,23,120$

Installation charges $=5 \times 750=$ Rs. 3,750

Total money spent by Santosh $=1,23,120+3,750$ $=$ Rs. $1,26,870$
