Answer:
The Answer should be 6%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
MP =1500 and Discount =10%
So, SP = 1500 × 90% =1350
We know, profit = [tex]\frac{sp-cp}{cp}[/tex] × 100%
=>20 =[tex]\frac{1350-cp}{cp}[/tex] × 100
=>CP = 1125
Now, if profit =12%
then, SP' = 1260 ;(using previous equation for profit and CP=1125)
So, SP' = MP × (100 -Discount )
∴ Discount = 16% ;(SP' = 1260 and MP = 1500)
So, Discount should be increased = 16% - 10% = 6%
Pls mark this as the brainliest
