Given that the manufacturer of a table sells it to the whole sale dealer at a profit of 10%
Then the whole sale dealer sells to a retailer at a profit of 30%
The retailer sells to a customer at a profit of 50%
If the customer pays Rs.4290 for the table then 1.1 × 1.3 × 1.5X = 4290
⟹ \\frac{11}{10}) × \\frac{13}{10}) × \\frac{3}{2})X = 4290
⟹ X = 4290 × \\frac{10}{11}) × \\frac{10}{13}) × \\frac{2}{3})
X(Manufacturing cost) = Rs. 2000
