To solve the questions, let's break them down one at a time.
1. Selling Price for a 25% Profit
To find out how much Ms. Angula should sell the fridge for to achieve a 25% profit, we can use the formula for selling price based on cost price and desired profit percentage.
\[ \text{Selling Price} = \text{Cost Price} + (\text{Profit Percentage} \times \text{Cost Price}) \]
Given:
- Cost Price (CP) = N$ 2500.00
- Profit Percentage = 25% = 0.25
Calculating the selling price:
\[ \text{Selling Price} = 2500 + (0.25 \times 2500) \] \[ \text{Selling Price} = 2500 + 625 \] \[ \text{Selling Price} = N$ 3125.00 \]
2. Percentage Loss if Sold for N$ 2050.00
To find out the percentage loss if she sells the fridge for N$ 2050.00, we can use the formula:
\[ \text{Loss} = \text{Cost Price} - \text{Selling Price} \] \[ \text{Percentage Loss} = \left( \frac{\text{Loss}}{\text{Cost Price}} \right) \times 100 \]
Given the selling price is N$ 2050.00:
Calculating the loss:
\[ \text{Loss} = 2500 - 2050 = 450 \]
Now, calculating the percentage loss:
\[ \text{Percentage Loss} = \left( \frac{450}{2500} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage Loss} = 0.18 \times 100 = 18% \]
Summary of Results:
- Ms. Angula should sell the fridge for N$ 3125.00 to make a 25% profit.
- If she sells the fridge for N$ 2050.00, she would incur an 18% loss on the cost price.
