उत्तर
Cost price of seeds = Rs 13700
Money spent on fertilizers = Rs 5300
Money spent on labour = Rs 7160
Total expenses = Cost of seeds + money spent on fertilizers + labour charges
= 13700 + 5300 + 7160
= Rs 26160
That is, total cost price is Rs 26160.
Selling price of the produce = Rs 35400
Since selling price is more than total cost price, so there is a profit.
Profit = Selling price − total cost price
= 35400 − 26160
= Rs 9240
∴ Lalitabai made a profit of Rs 9240 in this transaction.
