Answer:
Tzs 540
Explanation:
The selling of Tzs 475 results in a 5% loss.
It means Tzs 475 represents 95% of the cost price.
The cost price is equal to 100%.
If 95% = Tzs 475, 100 % = ?
=Tzs475/95 x 100
=Tzs 5 x 100
The cost price =Tzs500
To make 8% profits, the selling price will have to be
=Tzs 500 +( 8/100 x 500)
=Tzs 500 +( 0.08 x 500)
=Tzs =500 + 40
=Tzs 540
