उत्तर

Cost price of the goods = Rs 50000

Money spent on transport and octroi = Rs 7000

Total expenses while buying goods = cost of goods + money spent on transport and octroi

= 50000 + 7000

= Rs 57000

That is, total cost price = Rs 57,000.

Selling price of the goods = Rs 65,000.

Since selling price is more than cost price, so there is a profit.

Profit = Selling price − Total cost price

= 65000 − 57000

= Rs 8000

∴ Abraham made a profit of Rs 8,000 in this transaction.
