A Correct answer
Explanation

Let CP = 100, MP = 130. Stock = 4 units. Sale 1: 2 units at 130 = 260. Sale 2: 1 unit at 130 * 0.85 = 110.5. Sale 3: 1 unit at 130 * 0.70 = 91. Total Revenue = 461.5. Total CP = 400. Profit = 61.5. Profit % = (61.5/400)*100 = 15.375% = 15 3/8%.

C Correct answer
Explanation

Cost price is 320. Profit is 15%, so selling price = 320 * 1.15 = 368. Since there was a discount of 32, the marked price = 368 + 32 = 400. If sold at marked price (400), profit = 400 - 320 = 80. Profit percentage = (80/320) * 100 = 25%.
