A Correct answer
Explanation

Cost price = 40 dozen × Rs 60/dozen = Rs 2400. Revenue from 18 dozen at 25% profit = 18 × 60 × 1.25 = Rs 1350. Revenue from remaining 22 dozen at 50% profit = 22 × 60 × 1.50 = Rs 1980. Total revenue = Rs 3330. Profit = Rs 3330 - Rs 2400 = Rs 930. Profit percentage = (930/2400) × 100 = 38.75%. Option A is correct.
